We had a big first day at the show, getting our displays up just in
time! We built a custom bifold panel system with decorative bamboo
plywood to showcase our models. Attendees were impressed by the
quality of the designs and the value we are able to offer in the
package. We also explained the option of expedited permitting to allow
for an easy process.

There was also a tremendous amount of interest in our Kula Ridge
project, which features the Kama'aina Homes models in an affordable
house and lot package. Kula Ridge will be submitting a 201H
application to the Maui County Council this summer, so if you would
like the opportunity to purchase an affordable home upcountry, please
email morgan@kamaainahomes.com and we will add you to our interest
list. It would be especially helpful if you are welling to testify on
behalf of our project, so the County Council members can understand
the urgency of providing affordable housing to Maui's families. Many
of the people we spoke with today at the show explained the connection
they had with upcountry Maui; they grew up in Kula or would like to
help their children find a home in the area.

We still have one day to go at the show, hope to see you there Saturday!
