Da Maui Sleigh
Sunday, December 11, 2016 from 3-6pm in the North-East parking lot, corner for Ka’ahumanu Avenue and Kane Street.
Da Maui Sleigh began as a father and son tradition over 16 years ago when James Presbitero saw a small sleigh pass by in his neighborhood and decided to recreate the vision on a larger scale. Created at his own expense and through unsolicited donations, Da Maui Sleigh is now an annual holiday tradition, visiting communities throughout Maui bringing joy and happiness to Maui’s keiki.
The event is expected to draw a large crowd and therefore the public is encouraged to bring hats and water while they wait for their ride. There are no reservations. Entry opens at 2:30pm, the first ride will commence at 3:00pm and the last ride is 6:00pm.
