(Hawaii News Now) - The Great Aloha Run Sports, Health & Fitness Expo targets the fastest growing world of adventure, action sports, leisure activities, health and wellness. The 3-day Expo includes a faceted array of exhibit booths offering unique products and services, great entertainment, workshops and much more!
Additionally, it is the primary location where more than 20,000 participants of the annual Kaiser Permanente Great Aloha Run (the largest locally-based event giving individual donations to the community) pick up their race packets.
Our Expo encourages a healthy, happy and active lifestyle, physical fitness and even financial well-being! Our goal is to improve the quality of life for the people of Hawaii by exposing them to an event that showcases the most up to date, comprehensive, exciting and fun products and services in sports, health and fitness.
The GAR Expo affords the public and donors an opportunity to become a part of this GAR community effort. The Great Aloha Run's goal is to serve the needs of as many community organizations and charities as possible and to embrace a healthier lifestyle. The Expo is one of the vehicles we use to fulfill our annual goal.
