Nov 18, Learn and Play Hawaiian Games in Celebration of Makahiki!

This sounds like fun for the whole family! The Maui Nui Botanical Gardens are putting on a day of family fun in celebration of the Ancient Hawaiian New Year's Festival, or Makahiki. If you go, you'll be able to test your skills at Hawaiian games such as spear throwing, bowling, and Hawaiian checkers! I must admit I've always thought it would be really cool to learn how to throw a spear... and checkers, well, THAT'S always a fun game, so I'd love to know what the Hawaiian version is like! When: Saturday, November 20, 2010 from 10 a.m. until 1 p.m.

For more information, go to the Maui Nui Botanical Gardens website. (Link will open in new window.) And as always, if you go, we'd love to hear about it! Click here to share your story!
