*** Haleakalā Chapter's 93rd Consecutive Meeting***
PAIA COMMUNITY CENTER - 252 HANA HWY.
Doors Open 5:30 PM • Opening Circle 6:00 PM
 

Aloha Kākou,

Our next meeting is Tuesday, May 22nd. Please note that it will be held at the Paia Community Center because the Hã‘iku facility was not available this month. Doors open at 5:30pm. We will be starting promptly at 6pm.

This month’s meeting will be centered on community. Our first speaker will be Sylvia Cenzano, who will talk about sustainable communities. Malamalama.org. She will be followed by Hukilike No Maui and their plan for 5,000 acres of the current A&B lands.

Here’s the full agenda:
  • 6:00p Blessing & Dinner
  • 6:00p-6:30p sign-up for open mic (10 people, 1 minute max)
  • 6:45p Open Mic
  • 7:00p Sylvia Cenzano: Youth in Sustainable Independence, Malamalama.org
  • 7:20p Hukilike No Maui: TogetherForMaui.org
  • 8:00p Unraffle
  • 8:15p Pau & Cleanup
The focus of Sylvia Cenzano's presentation is building lasting relationships as a foundation to independent sustainable living…overcoming our differences, focusing on everyone’s strengths to build home, farm and business together.

Please remember to bring your potluck dish. Entrée’s are encouraged. This month’s meeting should be very informative and interesting. I look forward to seeing you all next week.

Do you like this agenda?
If you have recommendations for future events, please let your representative on the Board know what you would like your HFUU Haleakala Chapter to be doing. Email state communications director, Keith Ranney, with recommendations, comments, questions or concerns about your chapter.

As always, this meeting is a locavore potluck, and we appreciate you bringing enough food for yourself and some to share, or making a generous contribution so your chapter can continue populating the amazing food table we are known for.

We want you to bring your farm fresh goodies, cuttings and seeds to swap at the produce swap table, the more we all bring, the more abundance there will be at our meetings, and the better our personal inventories of plant cultivars on our farms will be as well. Sharing is caring, let’s make it happen! The three top givers of the most abundant swap items will be given complimentary deserts with the tickets for the un-raffle.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU! Look for the suggestion box by the door when you enter the meeting and let us know what you'd like to see happening at our meetings. Please think about topics you'd like to explore in breakout sessions at future meetings, write them down and let us know.

Mahalo to all of you for supporting this organization. We are the change we are waiting for. Let’s keep working together to make Maui the agriculture paradise it will be.
