Summer might be winding down for many of our kamaliʻi, but let’s kick back and reminisce about the awesome times we had during our ʻŌlino Summer Program.

🎶 Bringing pride and joy to the 61st Merrie Monarch Festival, the Makalapua Serenaders, a group of our spirited LT kamaliʻi, lit up the stage with the Star-Spangled Banner and Hawaiʻi Ponoʻī, after the entrance of the royal court all four nights! 🌟 These twelve young talents from Hawaiʻi Island, aged 7 to 12, stole hearts with their voices, outfits, shakas, and infectious smiles.
Here are a few highlights from this amazing experience for our kamaliʻi. Sing along with them if you like! Mahalo to all who made these dreams a reality.
