This float in the 1995 Aloha Week parade honors the many achievements of the late kupuna Katherine Kamalukukui Maunakea, who passed away late last year. Maunakea was a pioneer homesteader in Wai'anae, composed more than 100 songs, authored several books on Hawaiian culture, and was a lā'au lapa'au practitioner and lau hala expert.
