Executive Roast & Toast Honoring Ku'uhaku Park

Annual Executive Roast & Toast Honoring Ku'uhaku "Ku'u" Park as Past Chair and Board of Directors from 2015 to 2025.

This year, we will be honoring Past Chair, Ku'uhaku "Ku'u" Park, Vice President of Government and Community Relations at Matson. We hope you can join us for an evening of fun and laughter on Friday, May 30, 2025 at Halekulani. This year’s theme is “John Wick” so come dressed to kill - sharp suits, sleek looks, and the kind of business acumen that takes no prisoners.

Ku'u Park served on the Chamber’s Board from 2015 to 2025, as well as Chair from 2022-2024. His commitment to both professional excellence and community service has not gone unnoticed. We are thrilled to be able to honor, roast and toast Ku'u.
