Rebel Souljaz are four close friends born and raised in Waipahu, Hawaii, who embraced their love of music and singing from their early high school campus days to forming the reggae group we know today as Rebel Souljaz. Composed of four talented vocalists, Mike Maglinti, Will Su’a, Andrew “Bubba” Hodges and Tunez Moananu, each with their own unique style, but together creating a harmonious foursome unlike any other recording group.
Their debut effort, Nothing To Hide teamed them up with producer/arranger Imua Garza (Opihi Pickers, Kaipo, Kawao) for a full-blown all original island music extravaganza. With standout tracks like “Darling Angel”, “Nothing To Hide” and “The One”, the music of Rebel Souljaz quickly appealed mainstream island music enthusiasts and lovers of Hawaii’s local island reggae.

Meditative Coloring
2016-04-02 13:00 | Kealakekua Public Library, 81-6300 Mamalahoa Hwy, Kealakekua, HI, 96750, United States
Can you remember the sense of peace and enjoyment you felt while coloring as a child? Can coloring help you relax?
From choosing colors to the gentle, repetitive motion of your hands as you bring color to paper, coloring can be seen as a form of “active meditation”. Oftentimes, when you think of meditation, you think of sitting still for a long period of time. With active meditation, it is just the opposite: repetitive motions such as coloring cna help strengthen your focus and easily shift your attention back to a relaxed state. Stressful thoughts and future worries can be simply pushed aside as you take time to enjoy the present. Join us every Saturday for this mellow, relaxing event.
Program schedule is subject to change. Program is suitable for ages 16 and older. All materials will be supplied. Feel free to bring your favorite pencils, pens, or pastels. To arrange a sign language interpreter or other special accommodation, please call the hosting library as soon as possible: 323-7585.

Great American Cleanup Maui County part 2
2016-04-02 07:00 - 2016-04-15 23:59 | Mālama Maui Nui, PO Box 757, Puunene, HI, 96784, United States
Mālama Maui Nui’s goal for this year’s local Great American Cleanup campaign (March 19- April 30) is to inspire and empower individuals and community groups to remove litter and debris from shorelines, waterways, roads, and other public spaces.
Great American Cleanup volunteers are motivated by the notion that litter-free places allow for an ecosystem’s natural beauty to shine. Native species of plants and animals can thrive in healthy habitats, and people can experience first-hand the richness of Hawai‘i’s pristine environment.
It is essential to engage the people who live in each community within Maui County to take the lead on how to care for the land where they live, work, and play. The residents of each area know it best, and they have the potential to create the greatest impact on their community’s environmental health, which directly influences our overall quality of life.
This year’s theme, “Clean Your Block Party”, emphasizes the power of the collaborative effort, and how a group of individuals—of any age, background, or ability—can have a positive impact by taking action wherever they see a need.
Join us March 19 for the GAC Kickoff, and be inspired to organize a Great American Cleanup of your own! Check out the GAC Coordinator Toolkit at MalamaMauiNui.org, with best practices and activity ideas designed to help anyone conduct a Great American Cleanup event in their neighborhood.
