All while helping the cause of Philly Cure HD!

The Luau includes baby back ribs, and beef brisket with plenty of salads/sides and there will be a Slushy Rum Drink Machine.

Luau Fun Facts

Do you know who hosted the first Hawaiian luau? King Kamehameha II did so in 1819. A luau is a traditional Hawaiian party or feast that is usually accompanied by entertainment. Among people from Hawaii, the concepts of "luau" and "party" are often blended, resulting in graduation luaus, wedding luaus and birthday luaus. (From Wikipedia) Join the 2015 Philly Cure HD Luau
