_The Windward Business Mixer

The mixer was a great opportunity to bolster the business community of Kailua with over 100 guests in attendance! The event took place at Le Jardin Academy in Kailua.
Prizes were given away by Cinnamon's Restaurant, Ned Busch, YMCA, Round Table Pizza, A Cup of Tea in Kailua, Enterprise Technology Solutions and Le Jardin Academy.

LJA's band performed as well as upcoming Ukulele star Richard Mathews. Mathews played several original songs to a captive audience who were surprised to find out that the young musician is in 9th grade.
