On December 20, 2009, the Abrigo ‘Ohana invites you to join them for their monthly kani ka pila at beautiful Waimea Valley! The kani ka pila, or traditional Hawaiian music jam session, happens every third Sunday of the month in Hale‘iwa. This FREE music event is 0pen to all ages and skill levels, and was created to perpetuate the traditional music of Hawai‘i and the alohathat comes with it.

Seating for guests who wish to just come and enjoy the music is available, too, so bring your ‘ohana! Food and beverages available for purchase through the Waimea Valley Grill (no outside food or drinks please).

Bring your ‘ukulele, guitar, ipu, or just grab a couple of spoons off your table and get ready to make beautiful music! Music from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m., with sound check around noon. See www.myspace.com/abrigoohana for more.
