Waikīkī Wiki Wiki Wire Volume X, No. 36 Waikīkī Improvement Association September 3—9, 2009 Waikīkī Wiki Wiki Wire Fresh Flower Lei Available Again Along Kalākaua Avenue Royal Hawaiian Center lei stands now open The fragrance of plumeria, tuberose and ginger fills the air at Helumoa, Waikīkī, with the long-awaited re-opening of two prominent Hawaiian-owned businesses. Aunty Bella’s Lei Stand fronting Royal Hawaiian Center’s Building A (Hale ‘Ili) and Coconut Hut Lei Stand fronting Building B (Hale ‘Aha) near The Royal Grove opened for business August 20, bringing a celebrated Hawaiian custom to the fore. Kapua Medeiros sells orchid lei to Mike Kamahana strings a lei of fragrant tuberose blossoms visitors at Aunty Bella’s Lei Stand near at Coconut Hut Lei Stand near The Royal Grove at Royal Lewers and Kalākaua Hawaiian Center. “Making, giving, receiving and wearing lei is an important part of the Hawaiian way of life. It’s a symbol of aloha and hospitality, and is something we have been enjoying for generations,” said Manu Boyd, cultural director for Royal Hawaiian Center. “Lei stands here at Helumoa help foster a Hawaiian environment,” Boyd added. Favorite lei flowers include an array of introduced flora like plumeria, ginger, pikake, pua kenikeni, tuberose, pua kalaunu (crown flower), roses and orchids. Native lei favorites, harder to get, include maile, ‘ilima, lehua, kou, ‘a‘ali‘i, pa‘iniu and such ferns as palapalai. Some of these native plants now grow at Royal Hawaiian Center in The Royal Grove.

Kapela, whose nickname was “Bella,” is the namesake of Aunty Bella’s Lei Stand. One of Kapela’s daughters, Wahine‘aukai Moses Glushenko, groomed her children, including daughter Naomi Wahinekaupua Braine, in the business of “kau lei” (lei selling). Today, Naomi runs Aunty Bella’s with the kōkua of her daughter, Angela Kapua Medeiros, representing the fourth generation. “I’m just a keeper of part of our family legacy,” said Braine. Coconut Hut Lei Stand, now run by “Uncle Mike” Kamahana, is the legacy of another of Kapela’s daughters, Hannah Moses Shin. “We want to bring back the popularity of wearing lei at Royal Hawaiian Center,” said Boyd. “Our staff at Lei ‘Ohu Guest Services now wear lei daily, purchased from our two lei stands. We named our guest services operation “Lei ‘Ohu” meaning “adorning lei” with the expectation that Royal Hawaiian Center would welcome kama‘āina (local) and malihini (visitors) as if we are bedecking them with flower lei,” said Boyd. A high priority goal of Royal Hawaiian Center is to promote the integrity of Hawaiian cultural practices. That goal is shared by the Center owner, Kamehameha Schools. “The lei stands may not generate the kind of revenue that large retail operations do, but they are very important to Kamehameha and Royal Hawaiian Center for cultural and community reasons,” said Susan Todani, KS special projects director. September 2 was selected as the date for the blessing and dedication of the Center’s two lei stands as it is the anniversary of the birth of Queen Lili‘uokalani, Princess Bernice Pauahi Bishop’s hānai (adoptive) sister. The lands at Helumoa, Waikīkī are the property of the estate of Princess Pauahi – Kamehameha Schools. A well-known song honoring Queen Lili‘uokalani is “Makalapua” meaning ‘profusion of blooms.’ The song’s chorus provides our theme for the blessing and dedication of our leis stands: E lei ho‘i – bedecked with flower lei. Kamehameha Schools Kahu Kordell Kekoa will officiate at “E Lei Ho‘i” on Wednesday, September 2 at noon. The public is welcome to attend this celebration of flower lei at Helumoa at the grand re-opening of Aunty Bella’s Lei Stand and Coconut Hut Lei Stand. “Let’s enjoy the Hawaiian custom of wearing lei not just for special occasions, but as an everyday practice,” said Boyd. FREE PARKING: offer valid through January 31, 2010. The Center’s free parking promotion offers 3 hours of free parking with any restaurant validation and 2 hours free parking with any food court validation. Royal Hawaiian Theater validations apply for $5 parking after 10 p.m. Dining and entertainment validations can be combined with retail validations of $2 for 2 hours. No minimum purchase is required for validation.
