As the state considers take over of several area pension boards, some local boards are sending their members to a conference in Hawaii.

The Newton Retirement Board is sending two of its five members to Hawaii's Waikiki Beach for a six-day conference for public pension panels in May, according to a story in today's Globe West.

Among other area retirement boards, Needham is footing the bill for the Hawaii conference for one member, while Marlborough, Watertown, and Waltham are considering it. The Framingham, Maynard, Milford, Shrewsbury, and Wellesley boards decided not to send a delegation.
