Hula Meeting, July 14 at VFW
As a reminder, we will be meeting tomorrow, Monday, July 14, 2008 at the VFW from 6:30-8:30 pm to discuss the opportunity to do another hula show and fundraiser on September 20th. This is an invitation to those dancers who performed in the March luau only as we are doing the same show and using the same outfits and accessories. We are still trying to finalize some details, but, in general, the purpose of this meeting is to give everyone a heads-up, to get a commitment, and to actually start practices. Open meeting details.
