Hau'oli Makahiki Hou!
As we enter the new year of 2021, we are, unfortunately still plagued with issues of 2020, mainly the COVID-19 virus. The Ho'ike Hawai'i Hula Competition 2021 is currently scheduled for July 24-25, 2021. However, we are in discussion at this time as to whether or not we will proceed with this event. The COVID-19 pandemic is still much a part of our lives and we are keeping close attention to the direction the virus is trending to. Here in Florida, the numbers of infected individuals are increasing, along with more deaths occurring each day, especially in Orange County. Our concern is what's best for all and that everyone is healthy and not subject to any possibility of infection. As soon as we make a final decision to hold this event, or not, we will post it on our website and send out an email blast and Facebook notification. We appreciate and love all of you, our Ho'ike Hawai'i 'Ohana, and look forward to the day we can all be together again to celebrate the Spirit of Aloha safely!
