Aloha All,
We are happy to be able to conduct business at our meeting this coming Saturday, October 10th at 11:15am at the Provo Towne Center Reserve Room at the southwest bottom entrance to the Center. Please come join as for pot luck and some kanikapila too plus talk story and have fun Hawaiian Style.
On Friday October 2d we hosted Kawainui with Micah Hirokawa and his group, hula dancers, and Kalei Gamiao ukulele virtuoso at the food court and afterwards in the Reserve Room with pupus. They were outstanding and even brought thank you gifts for Alicia Conklin, Al Nobriga, and the big one for our kupuna Gwen Anderson. I received many compliments for them and the kanikapila in our meeting room topped it all off with non-stop singing and dancing. Thank you all who helped set up, take down, and clean up along with the ono kaukau. We had about 120 upstairs and maybe about 60-70 downstairs. Fun night for this free event. Mahalo to Micah and the gang.
The Mall Management sent a nice letter to Alicia Conklin commending her on the show and our efforts in cleaning up and setting up. She said that “we love our partnership with KAHHCC and the community you bring to Provo Towne Centre.” Now that’s what we should be all about.
With our membership drive for 2027 in full swing, we hope you will bring someone with you to this Saturday’s potluck or at least encourage them to join the hui via Zeffy. It will be easy to use Zeffy with your cell and we will teach you this Saturday. So you can pay for membership and also for tee shirt orders via Zeffy.
Next year should be another fun year but it takes some effort so your kokua on committees and helping to cook, clean, set up and sing are much appreciated.
Our condolences go out to Colleen Sircable our hui secretary whose mother passed away this past Saturday. Funeral arrangements pending.
Ok all. Mahalos for your time to read this and hope to see you on Saturday.
Aloha no.
Unko
