July Gathering and 'Ohana Retreat!!!

Aloha!!!

We apologize for not being able to have our June gathering due to a scheduling conflict with the room we normally gather in. However, we WILL be showing the amazing film "Keepers of the Flame" by Eddie Kamae, which focuses on three INCREDIBLE Hawaiian women, Mary Puku'i, Edith Kanaka'ole and 'Iolani Luahine. Anyone interested in Hawaiian culture, history, hula won't want to miss this!!! In addition, we'll also have a free hula workshop for na keiki!!! FUN!!! Our gatherings are potluck, please bring your favorite dish to share.

We are also preparing for an 'Ohana Retreat, which will be on Saturday, August 6th at Lindon Harbor. We are so excited at being able to partner with Team Kalea, Kauwahi`Anaina Hawai`i Hawaiian Civic Club and Lei Aloha O Ka 'Ohana, making it truly a community event!!

We are VERY excited to once again be hosting a KEIKI FISHING TOURNAMENT!!! Open to kids ages 5 - 12, the tournament is FREE of charge, and no fishing license is required. However, please note, that all children participating MUST be accompanied and supervised by an parent or adult guardian AT ALL TIMES. As such, we've provided a link to download the 2011 Utah Fishing Guide which provides information on purchasing a Utah fishing license.

The tournament starts at 8:00 am sharp, on Saturday morning. Participants need to pre-register for an accurate headcount prior to the tournament as well as check in on the morning of the event.

**Registration and other information regarding the Keiki Fishing Tournament can be downloaded HERE.** We thank Team Kalea, and Kauwahi `Anaina Hawai`i Hawaiian Civic Club in advance for their generous donations for prizes.

For the `ohe kapala workshop, we will provide all materials EXCEPT the fabric to print on. Please bring your own scrap fabric pieces to practice stamping on.

Everyone's invited, we are looking forward to a great time with our community! Please stay tuned for updates !!! As always, if you have any questions please feel free to email us at huihawaiioutah at yahoo dot com
