A Cinco de Mayo celebration will be held for the public on Friday from 5 to 10 p.m. in Lahaina.
Businesses in Lahaina Square at 840 Wainee Street, such as Hungry Coyote Restaurant & Catering, RVN Deli Kitchen Catering, Eating Local, Anytime Fitness, E Foil, Tropical Salsa Studio and many more will host booths with food and family-friendly activities.
Samba do Green, a Brazilian band, will perform along with other local artists, dancers, fire twirling and face painting for keiki during the Cinco de Mayo event.
Pacific Pearl Entertainment (Sonido Inspiracion Latina) will have the 360 Photo Booth (music video maker) for parties of one to three to make memorable celebration videos to take home for purchase.
Tropical Salsa Studio will hold an open house showcasing their space for special events to include a full DJ system, photo booths, table and chairs, plus much more.
This Cinco de Mayo event is the second anniversary for Hungry Coyote, which will have a taco and Mexican dessert stand. A portion of proceeds from this event will go to the community effort, which assists with training for the Teen/Young Adult Empowerment Program.
This program provides training in the restaurant industry from sanitization, front of house, back of house and cooking. Youth are required to obtain a food handler's card and to learn all aspects of a restaurant.
Several teens have already graduated from the program with bank accounts, state identification and the skills necessary to go on and secure viable employment in our community.
Local area businesses who would like to host a booth during this event are encouraged to contact Hungry Coyote at 808-793-0909 or email Hungrycoyote808@yahoo.com by today.
