One More Sleep Before Halloween. Where Are You Going Tomorrow Night?

Maui Halloween
When my brothers and I were young, instead of counting the days to a main event, we count the number of sleeps. Tonight … tonight will be the last sleep before Halloween :)

I already am beat. We just came back from my kid’s school’s Halloween Night. It was actually so much fun watching the kids and parents in costumes.

There are many fun places go to to for ‘trick-o-treating’ here on Maui. Where are you going? If you have not decided yet, here are some options. Details are in the Calendar Maui Webpage. Go there for more.

Maui Mall
Kaahumanu Center
Front Street Lahaina

Aloha Friday – Talking Halloween

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So Kalani thought that on Fridays she would take it easy on posting, too. On her blog she’ll ask a simple question for us to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response. Then if we would like to participate, we can do the same.

I am participating this week and my question is:

What is your (or your kid’s) costume going to be for Halloween? (I think this was asked before, but I still would like to get more ideas :)

For more Aloha Friday Posts, visit Kalani at An Island Life

Hallelujah Party – A Fun Alternative to Halloween

Hope Chapel will be throwing their annual Hallelujah Party for kids on October 31st from 5:30-8:30pm. Admission is $5 per person and includes candy, prizes and entrance to all of The Hallelujah Party attractions.

One of the largest Halloween events for children on Maui, the Hallelujah Party has drawn hundreds of kids and their families for years, providing a fun and safe environment for young trick-or-treaters.

With carnival style games, rock climbing walls, jumping castles, a dunking booth, pony rides, box car races and much more, there is something for every age of child at the Hallelujah Party. For the last three years, a special section, Toddler Town, has been added for younger kids with games geared specifically for their age group.

For those looking to make it a full night out, there will be concessions available with plate lunches, pizza, salads, cotton candy, and shaved ice.

The Hallelujah Party runs from 5:30-8:30 at Hope Chapel, located at 300 E. Welakahao Rd. in Kihei. For more information on the Hallelujah Party, contact Hope Chapel at 879-3853.
