This isn’t your typical fun run. The Rainforest Ramble is designed to help keiki connect with the ʻāina (land) in a hands-on, meaningful way. As they run or walk alongside their parents or guardians, kids will participate in interactive learning stations that highlight:
Native plants and animals
Hawaiian cultural practices
Environmental stewardship and conservation
Check-in starts at 8 am to 8:50 am and event starts at 9 am. It’s a breathtaking setting that offers just the right blend of outdoor excitement and natural beauty. Not only is this event a blast for families, but it also supports a great cause.
