Classmates will support their Alma Mater at the annual summer Ho’olaule’a on Saturday, June 22, on the school’s Sullivan Field. The sunset event opens at 5 p.m. with the luau pa’ina starting at 6 p.m.

Tickets for Saturday are $65 per person. The band Nevah Too Late is scheduled to provide entertainment.

The reunion for the first coed graduating class will continue on Sunday, June 23rd, with the 9:30 a.m. Mass at St. Anthony Church. Classmate Monsignor Terrence Watanabe will be the principal celebrant. A memorial board honoring their classmates who have passed will be on display at the entrance of the church. This community Sunday Mass will honor the Class of 1974 on their golden 50th anniversary as well as other classes who have plans to attend the Mass.

Following the Mass and group photo, the Class of 1969 will gather for a no-host lunch at Lemon Grass Restaurant at the Kele Center in Kahului. Classmates having lunch will pay direct for their food and drinks within their table seating at checkout. Classmates encouraged to bring cash for payment convenience.

Although Ho’olaule’a tickets are on sale through the school office, the 1969 reunion planning committee asks that classmates place their reservations through the committee. Classmates can mail a check payable to Madeline Pruse and mailed to 52 Maha Road, Makawao, HI 96768, or they can Venmo payments to Art Fillazar at @AArthur-Fillazar. Payment is only for Saturday event ($65).

Classmates are asked to clearly leave their name and contact info and any additional information including donations to the planning committee and/or the school/church. Deadline to place reservations is Friday, June 7. Classmates who are only planning to attend the Sunday event are asked to also place that reservation so a proper head count can be had for lunch.
