St. Joseph Feast
St. Joseph Feast is a tradition that dates back to 1905 when the Hawaii Gazette reports that a fair was held to raise funds to build St. Joseph Church.
Today, the tradition continues on. Although times and needs have changed, this major fundraiser will support St. Joseph’s Early Learning Center, as well as community programs such as feeding the homeless, distributing food boxes to those in need, giving financial assistance for those in crisis, as well as raise funds for the new multi-purpose center to replace the dilapidated gym that is used for community functions.
The annual St. Joseph Feast will be on May 5, 6 & 7, 2017 at 1294 Makawao Avenue. It will be a fun-filled weekend of delicious food, valuable goods auctions, livestock auction, games,bouncers, crafters and wonderful entertainment throughout the weekend.
So come one, come all to beautiful Makawao and have a wonderful time!
