Maui Roping Clubs President Rodney Akau said, “the community is honored to have the Rice family as the Grand Marshall’s for this years parade, as they have given so much to our Paniolo heritage over these past 100 years.”
This year’s route which is being staged in the empty field across from the Veterans’ and Makawao cemeteries on Baldwin Avenue, will be the traditional one, up Baldwin Avenue and through Makawao town, turning onto Makawao Avenue and end at the Eddie Tam Gym grounds.
