Mother's Day cookout planned

All families are invited to eome together in a spirit of unity and 'ohana on Mother's Day for "E Ho'olauna Kekahi me Kekahi" (Coming Together in Fellowship), a Great Hawaiian Cookout, on Sunday, May 13, at Kapi'olani Park. This "backyard" 'ohanastyle cookout will begin at 8:30 a.m. with a brief ceremony and pule, and eonhnue throughout the day. "E Ho'olauna" is being organized by the Native Hawaiian Legal Corporation to eelebrate and honor families and their mothers. There will be no food concessions, so families are asked to bring their own potluck, hibachi and refreshments. Please make plans to take away your used coals to keep the park enjoyable and safe for all. Volunteer cookout organizer Pedro Agrisol has planned a day of enjoyable Hawaiian entertainment at the Kapi'olani Park Bandstand, plus games on the field for all. Families are invited to share special messages, songs and dances in honor of their mothers. The Royal Hawaiian Band will perform from 2-3 p.m. at the bandstand. Hawaiian organizations are invited to set up information booths along the rows of ironwood trees near the bandstand. No craft concessions or sale booths, allowed. For further information, contact Pedro Agrisol at 521-2302.
