The 66th annual Waimea Twilight Christmas Parade is a cherished tradition in the North Hawaii community and is the second oldest parade in the State of Hawaii. Held annually on the first Saturday of December, the parade draws spectators, participants, and volunteers from across the island and the state, with many visitors planning their vacation visits around this beloved community celebration.The parade marks the official start of the holidays in Waimea and provides a safe, festive, and family-friendly environment for all who attend. It is made possible through the dedication of a committed group of volunteers and the generous support of local sponsors. More than just a parade,the event embodies the spirit of community, celebrates shared values, and reinforces the cultural continuity that makes Waimea unique. Contingency Relief Funds will help support the cost of police services required to safely host the parade. As the event requires road closures at three locations, along with traffic control at additional intersections and surrounding roadways,several police officers are needed to manage traffic flow and ensure the safety of participants, spectators, and the broader community.This funding assistance will help ensure the Waimea Twilight Christmas Parade remains a safe and enjoyable event. *50. 501(c)(3) Mission Statement Support education, health care, and activities that foster a sense of place, belonging, and community cohesion rooted in the diverse and unique culture of Waimea. *51.
