Ooooh! Also, at the Kilauea Military Camp at HVNP, there’s a free show at the Crater Rim Cafe on Friday nights at 7pm. It’s my old halau, and a great show!
Oh, and you don’t have to be military to go
Hi JulieAnn - Mahalo for the tip on the free show at the Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. I’d love to check that out sometime.
