OUR MISSION
SOS Hui members believe it is the intent of Princeville's original Master Plan that ALL 27 links of the Makai Golf Course would remain Open Space.
The Princeville at Hanalei Community is located on the northern side of the beautiful and serene island of Kauaʻi, Hawaiʻi.
Hui members monitor Starwood Capital Group's threatened development of zoned Open Space and report relevant information via this website and
e-mail distribution list.
DO YOU WANT TO SAVE PRINCEVILLE'S OPEN SPACE?
