Event co-chairs Sharon Martinez and Jim Sala have embraced the Hawaiian theme of this year’s festival.
“We are so grateful to Honda for such a fabulous opportunity prize. Disney’s Aulani Resort is the
place to be this summer, and we are thrilled to be able to offer this to our guests,” said Ms. Martinez.
“Because of Honda’s generosity and the generosity of so many others, we are again able to raise much
needed funds for so many children in need,” added Mr. Sala. Additional major sponsors include Classic
Tents, TravelStore, Young’s Market/The Estates’ Group, and Donald and Priscilla Hunt, Hunt Enterprises,
Inc.
