This week, we honor the lives lost in the Lāhainā fires, and reflect on the incredible strength that the community of West Maui has shown this year. The one-year mark seems a fitting time to give a few Kapalua Golf & Tennis Ohana updates. 1/3rd of our workers lost their homes on August 8th, 2023. Thanks to the support of our ownership team and the strong spirit of our community, we have taken great steps forward together. ❤️‍#LahainaStrong

Housing:

We are proud to announce that members of our staff will move into the Kapalua Village temporary housing project within the week. TY Management, Daiwa House Group, and our Facility Maintenance team worked extremely hard to provide this temporary housing solution for Kapalua Golf & Tennis Associates as well as other members of the West Maui community. Stay tuned for another update next week!

HTA School:

“Within weeks of last year’s fires, Hawai‘i Technology Academy launched a new campus for the keiki of Lāhainā. It started with pop-up tents and a one-room classroom before the school found a beautiful campus and healing place at Kapalua Golf & Tennis. More than 100 students from kindergarten to grade 8 began to restabilize and get back to the important business of learning. Last year wrapped with real celebrations as our grade 5 and 8 students graduated. A fresh new school year started this week, and HTA Lāhainā is looking forward to more positive chapters ahead.”

Community:

We are excited to announce we will host another Kapalua Family Fun Night on Saturday, September 7th.
