Hey there Kalani -

There aren't too many Chicago-area Tiki Events, so I am bummed that the first one listed is the same weekend as Hukilau (June 28th). I'm a Southern Wisconsin tiki-phile and am always looking to enjoy more Tiki events in the area. Since I already have my tickets booked for Hukilau in Ft. Lauderdale, I guess I'll have to wait for the August event.

Speaking of August Tiki Events in Chicago - does anyone know what's up with the major Chicago Tiki event mentioned in the 1/7/03 posting that is supposed to be sometime in August?? Can't wait to here more on that one! :)
