Led by Kwaj dance teacher Masina McCo-
llum, more than 130 dancers performed
modern hula dances at the annual hula
dance review May 8 at Emon Beach.
McCollum dedicated this year’s per-
formance to Palepa Smith, her mother,
who taught dance on Kwajalein for more
than 30 years. Smith was unable to trav-
el back to Kwajalein to perform in this
year’s revue due to Covid-19 travel re-
strictions.
The large audience that gathered en-
joyed special live musical accompani-
ment by Kwaj band Pure Aloha and a
community potluck for invited friends
and family members following the show.
Enjoy the photos, and come on out to
share your aloha spirit next year.

WEATHER DISCUSSION: After a rainy start to the week that saw
nearly 3 inches of rainfall from Tuesday to Thursday, conditions
have calmed to finish out the work week. Expect dry and breezy
conditions through Saturday evening, before a surface trough
moves into the area likely causing moderate to heavy precipi-
tation during the morning hours of Sunday. During this period,
winds will drop to around 10 knots ahead of another trade wind
influx causing more showers on Monday. Conditions will even-
tually settle for the start of the work week as breezy and mostly
dry weather returns.
FRIDAY and SATURDAY: Mostly sunny and breezy with stray
showers, isolated to widely scattered Saturday night. Winds
NE-E at 13-18 knots with occasional higher gusts.
SUNDAY: Mostly cloudy with scattered showers and stray thun-
derstorms. Winds ENE-ESE at 7-12 knots with higher gusts near
showers.
MONDAY: Mostly cloudy with scattered showers and stray thun-
derstorms. Winds NE-E at 14-19 knots with higher gusts near
