Hula Association of the Midwest AlohaWorld Ohana

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. 2325 Lakewood in Chicago. Sign up to perform hula or other Polynesian dance by 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!
