Halau gives golfers an only-in-Hawaii welcome

First photo: Members of Halau Maui Nui O Kama send participants in the 12th annual Shane Victorino Celebrity Dinner and Golf Classic out onto the Wailea Gold Course on Saturday with a Hawaiian chant. Victorino, a former Major League Baseball player who won World Series titles with the Philadelphia Phillies and Boston Red Sox after growing up on Maui and starring in multiple sports for St. Anthony High School, hosts the event as a fundraiser for the Shane Victorino Foundation. The foundation helps provide children in need with educational, recreational and wellness programs primarily in Hawaii, Las Vegas and Philadelphia.
