Ho'ike Hula, Nov 2nd

Aloha kakou! I realize I threw some dates out, the last being Nov. 9th, but that is a 3- or 4-day weekend, so I'd rather leave that open for families to enjoy. Aunty Sandi and I are ironing out the details but are ready to make this happen.  Keep in mind that we will have 'uniki in March or April if your keiki cannot make this event. As well, I still have a holiday party to plan and likely one more get together before 'uniki. No costumes. Just aloha wear if you have it or anything halau color (turquoise/aqua). Keeping it simple. Will post song list shortly. Looking forward to it!

Malama kou 'ohana

Hoping you all are fairing alright during this weekend of storms. Please stay safe. As of right now, we will still have practice this Tuesday. If we are still strapped to the base, I will blog again, but please just keep an eye on the TCCOR status.

Take care and stay warm,
Kanani
