As you might know, 2009 marks the 50th year that Hawaii has been a state. This Saturday evening, from 4-7, the Pi’ilani Village Shopping Center will be hosting a party celebrating the 50th state’s induction into the Union. Keeping with the number 50, the party is going to be 50’s themed (for the younger generation having trouble picking an outfit, think the movie Grease). The fun will include games, contests, music, and dancing. Jimmy Mac & the Kool Kats will headline the musical entertainment, sure to feature rock-n-roll hits from Chuck Berry, Little Richard, and Bo Diddley. There will be fantastic door prizes given out as well, including $100 dollar gift certificates to Roy’s Restaurant, Outback Steakhouse, and Roger Dunn Golf. Also, the Maui Classic Car Club will be showing off over 50 of their classic, exotic hot rods. So guys, grease back your hair, roll up the sleaves of your favorite white T-shirt, don your go-to leather jacket and be ready for hours of swinging with a poodle-dress wearing partner.

Hope to see you there!
