Hui O Hula

The Hui O Hula Club wishes a happy October birthday to Susan Cucci of Mutual 4. Cucci has been a Hui O Hula dancer and member since its inception and is on its board as secretary. Having Cucci on the team makes a big difference because she is no’eau/wise and akamai/ sophisticated. She often finds the best way to get things done. In class, she keeps everyone positive and focused. For 18 years, in her gentle way, Cucci has welcomed all new dancers and continually helps everyone in class get up tospeed. Aloha and admiration to Cucci for her graceful dancing, her compassion and her unwavering dedication to the LW Hula Club.

Hawaiian hula lessons are held twice a week upstairs in Clubhouse 6 on Tuesdays and in Veterans Plaza on Thursdays. Both classes start at 1 p.m. Those who would like to learn basic hula steps may come to Clubhouse 6 on Tuesday at 12:30 p.m. Dancers Keiko Kawamoto and Cucci will be there to show and tell. For more information, call (562) 431-2242.
