The organizers of the Hukilau are considering joining forces with the
organizers of Exotica in Chicago. The result would be one big Tiki Bash, Hukilau in Chicago 2005. Hukilau would definitely return to the Mai Kai in Fort Lauderdale in 2006.
This would give Hukilau a fresh venue for one year, avoid hurricanes, and build excitement for the Hukilau's 2006 return to Fort Lauderdale during the Mai Kai's 50th anniversary year.
We are polling TC members to get their feelings on the matter.
Would you rather:
a. have Hukilau 2005 in Chicago and Hukilau 2006 in Fort Lauderdale.
or
b. keep the event at the Mai Kai?

I know California isn't on the list of choices, but how about it? The weather is always pretty good in September, maybe a little hot, but not unbearable. Just some food for thought.

I think Thursday should be in that place in Vancouver, Friday should be at the old Dallas Trader Vics, Saturday at the Mai-Kai and Sunday winding down in Chicago.
This pain in the neck is glad to help.

The Bali Hai & Humphreys in San Diego and the Caliente in Palm Springs immediately come to mind.

I had heard a rumor that Hukilau 2005 was to be in Vegas. How cool would THAT be?
If I have to vote for one of the choices listed above, I vote Chicago. I hear this crazy seasonal hurricane thing in Florida is supposed to last 30 years!

Yes! The U.S. Navy's Great Lakes Training facility isnt too far away from Chi-Town and i think that a brief change of venue might be good...

Good point Angeluau! Why would the Exotica organizers participate in this??? Just curious. Plus, I was sooo looking forward to Hukilau in Florida this year, and couldn't go, that next year I would like it to be in Florida so I can visit for the first time!!
