Submit Your Mainland Hawaiian
Event For event organizers,
we invite you to consider submitting the concerts to the AlohaWorld.com
Events Calendar site.
We recommend you submit your events
as early as possible for maximum exposure. Also, if your event will have vendor
booths available this is a great way to get the word out to potential vendors.
You will be able to
submit and manage all of your postings. You can read the
Events FAQ,
to become familiar with the process. Basically, you need an account, add a venue
and once that is approved, you can submit the event. Once submitted you can
login and edit the listing at anytime if needed.
This is a
FREE service of AlohaWorld.com
We welcome everyone to make use of this
valuable Aloha resource.

Chicago Hula Jam
presented by Hula Association of the Midwest
Come one, come all. 3 to 6 P.M. Quite possibly the
best event ever. Full performances of Hula, Tahition, and live Hawaiian music.

contacting Wendy at
hulaproductions@gmail.com or (630) 447-9692.
$10 for non-members, children under 12 are free. Of
course, if you're a member you pay $5. If I were you, I would come at least for
the food.
Speaking of food, plate lunches are $8; Kalua pig,
mac salad, namasu and don't forget the rice (2 scoop). Then Kathy Lani's
Portagee bean soup is $5. Speaking of ono grinds!!!
There will be raffle prizes. Bring something to
donate to raffle off. Then who knows, you might win something to take home. Come
to think of it, you might just win your own item.
A portion of the proceeds will go to the Little
Sisters of the Poor. Personally, I think there should be an extension of these
Sisters at Lanakila Housing.
Raffles, door prizes, all that fun stuff. Mark your
calendars, tell your friends, gather your ohana. See you there on May 21st!
