Hawaiian Mega Hula Event Sure to be Fun

written by Salt River Tubing August 27, 2013September 27, 2013

Hula Day at Salt River Tubing

If you are looking for a Hawaiian luau adventure, don a grass skirt, grab your coconuts and beach comber straw hat, and head to Salt River Tubing’s Hawaiian Mega Hula event, Saturday, Sept. 7, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., on the Lower Salt River in beautiful Tonto National Forest.

In addition to the free leis, hula gals and limbo music pulsating on the beach, the More Kids in the Woods event will showcase the Salt River Tubing grass-shaking hula line dancers, limbo and hula hoop contests. Invited exhibitors also will be featured, including the College Times Street Team, Nawgan Beverage Co. and Vitamin Water.

Salt River Tubing will award free tube rental passes and limited edition Hawaiian Mega Hula T-shirts for the best Hawaiian tuber costumes. Passes are valid on a return visit. Hawaiian shuttle buses will transport guests to the Lower Salt River for fun in the sun on the mountain stream rocking rapids.

“Our Hawaiian Mega Hula event is the icing on the cake for summertime fun on the Lower Salt River,” said Salt River Tubing’s President and Chief Executive Officer Henri Breault. “September is the perfect month for the Hawaiian More Kids in the Woods event. The event is an attention-grabber for teens and families to encourage them to venture into the great

outdoors,” he continued. “High schools and universities are in full swing, and students need an outdoor break in which to revive and energize. The water flow is usually great, and it’s the perfect time to enjoy a floating picnic on the Lower Salt River.”

The Hawaiian Mega Hula event, co-sponsored by 98 KUPD Radio and Salt River Tubing, is aligned with the USDA Forest Service’s More Kids in the Woods commitment in meeting the challenge of reduced youth involvement in outdoor activities. The program was expressly designed to encourage efforts to get kids and teens outdoors.

Labor Day Fun

Celebrate Labor Day weekend at Salt River Tubing, and participate in the award-winning Take Pride in America event, from Saturday, Aug. 31, through Monday, Sept. 2, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.

During this event, floaters will be encouraged to participate in the Salt River Heroes = Litter Zero event by stashing and bagging their picnic trash in Tommy Tuber litter bags to help keep the Salt River clean and beautiful. To date, 640 tons of trash have been stashed and bagged on holiday weekends.

Fun and Safety with Salt River Tubing

Salt River Tubing is open weekends only (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) until Sept. 29. The cost of tube rental is $17 per person/tube (includes sales tax), and includes inner tube rental and shuttle bus service. Children must be 8 years or older and at least 4 feet tall for tube rental and shuttle bus service. Children, non-swimmers and inexperienced swimmers should wear life vests.

Daily operating hours are 9 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. The latest tube rental is 3:30 p.m., weather and water flow conditions permitting. The last shuttle bus pickup is 6:30 p.m.Glass containers are prohibited by law in the Lower Salt River Recreational Area and will be confiscated. Ice chests and coolers will be inspected for glass containers before boarding shuttle buses. Have a great time by responsibly appointing a designated driver before beginning your tubing adventure.

Salt River Tubing is located in Tonto National Forest, just seven minutes from Highway 202 East, on Power Road, operating under permit by the USDA Forest Service.
