Happy birthday, George Weber (did you check out the Tire Warehouse ad in the Wednesday TGI? They even had a nice CVS Longs piece, too)! So, on what days does Hoku get the spa treatment?

Edwin Vea (he was shopping for Boys Day — did we Sink da Mayo? — with the mo‘opuna Wednesday…it’s not just Mother’s Day shopping at Kukui Grove Center in Lihu‘e) was lamenting not being able to return to work at The Beach House restaurant (he said they’re pumping on the South Shore), and the senior softball players are anxious on the start of round two Saturday (which is the last day for the Mother’s Day Shop and Dine program, too).
Kudos to Shereen Ho‘opi‘i and the Lili‘uokalani Trust ‘ohana on overcoming all the precautionary uptick measures on getting out the 400 U.S. Department of Agriculture Farmers to Families food packages to residents’ tables.
More kudos to Stacie Chiba-Miguel of The Shops at Kukui‘ula (she had Chip Bahouth already taking registration for the Visitor Industry Father’s Day fishing tournament at the Wednesdayn market!), and Dr. Holley Poag of Urgent Care at Po‘ipu and The Clinic at Po‘ipu, on the establishment of the COVID-19 drive-thru testing site.
Today starting at 5 p.m., Kaua‘i gets a taste of football (no parents, please!) for the first time since the pandemic took place. Coach Teddy Arroyo (he was coordinating the USDA food-package delivery, too!) said mahalo for the collaboration between Warren Haruki (the boys needed a place to practice), the county (Department of Parks and Recreation and Mayor Derek Kawakami), the officials association (will Placido Valenciano be blowing?), and the coaches (Kyle Linoz and Michael Tressler) on getting the ball snapped.
