Web success!  We recently changed our host server to better accommodate our web site and all of the features it offers for our owners, agents, & residents.  We have had a couple of glitches as we've made the transition, but hope to have it working properly in no time.  Now you should be able to access our calendar to find out about upcoming meetings, island events, scheduled pest control & more.  Owners will be able to register in order to have to meeting minutes, items up for owner vote, along with ballots and proxy forms.  If you are looking for information on our web site and don't find it, please contact us and let us know.  If we are able to add it, we will!

Tsunami Scare - We are pleased to say that the tsunami came nowhere near Kihei Shores, so everyone can breathe a sigh of relief.  The water did not reach any higher than the top of the beach at Kamaole III, which left us with a very pristine looking beach the next morning.  Our thoughts and best wishes go to those in Japan who are unfortunately experience the worst that such an event can bring.

The month of February has been a great one thus far...(unless you are a Steelers fan).  Here on property we have spruced up our entry signs with some new lighting, making it even easier to see our entrance at night whether you're traveling north or south on S. Kihei Rd.  Our hard working crew also have dressed up the flower bed at the base of the big sign.  Thanks guys!

Whale season this year has brought us so many sightings, especially right at our front door, Kamaole Park III.  Baby whales learning to play, & huge adult whales breaching, slapping and splashing in the water have made sunsets at Kam a phenomenal experience.  Often this year the whales have been so close you can hear them slap the water, while appreciating their immense size as they cruise past the stand up paddle boarders just a couple hundred yards from shore.  We certainly are fortunate to experience such majesty just a few steps from our front door.

From the February 18th Maui News...

James Dorr gets up close with a baby humpback whale Tuesday. He said he and his wife, Glenys, were kayaking about a mile off of the Kihei Boat Ramp when the baby whale, its mother and a male escort approached them. “I put my underwater camera in the water and got this photo of the baby,” he said. “They swam about 100 yards and all breached at the same time. . . . Quite exciting.” Mid-February is about halfway through the winter whale season in Hawaiian waters.

Mahalo to all of our Owners who have already returned their Owner Contact Update forms, and SurePay forms for those signing up for the automated payment service.  We have received a lot of enthusiastic support for our move to self-management, and look forward to hearing from the rest of our owners through the end of the month.

Kihei Shores is very fortunate to have experienced minimal issues with last nights massive rain storm.  Thunder & lightning punctuated the night until 6 am, while the wind blew and the rain came down in sheets.  Much of Kihei had mud and flooding bringing things to a slow grind.

Today marks the start of the new county ban on plastic shopping bags at check out stands across the island.  Remember to bring your reusable tote bag with you on your next shopping trip!

 
Here on property we are off to a great start of our new year!  New planter baskets have been hung around the pool & spa area.  The baskets contain many native plants, including Pohinahina, Ilie’e, Kupakupa, ‘Ae’ae, & Nehe.  We look forward to watching them grow and blossom as they beautify the pool area.

This year's Annual Owner Meeting was held in the Garden Room at Kalama Heights, in Kihei.  There was not enough owner participation to make quorum, so the meeting was unable to proceed.  However, there was an informal Q & A session with owners who attended and the Board of Directors.  Items discussed included possible upgrades to the common areas in the coming year, block watch and home security issues, and how Kihei Shores has weathered the economic downturn, and positive outlook for the future.
