ho'olaule'a?
#1
does anyone know if there's a ho'olaule'a next weekend? if so, what's it about? what are they celebrating? i must have missed the announcement in the paper or on the radio.

Every year there is a Ho'olaule`a in Hilo on the last weekend of September, on Saturday (AFAIK), and on Sunday there is Queen Liliu'okalani's birthday celebrated at the gardens. I think the ho'olaule'a celebrates the end of the month long Aloha festival, but I could easily be wrong about that.

In Waimea last weekend it was a Paniolo Parade for Aloha week, in Honoka'a it was a Peace Parade because the world needs it.
