This year, our Thanksgiving Day celebrations will have even greater meaning. Families have endured much and so we eagerly look forward to holiday gift giving to lift our spirits and to thank those who have done so much for us.

Today you have been delivered the first of five gift guides to help you in your task of finding the best gifts for your family and friends. Be on the lookout for Gift Guides 2, 3 and 5 which will be delivered in the Honolulu Star-Advertiser on Nov. 28, Dec. 5, and Dec. 19 respectively. The fourth guide (Dec. 15) will be included in MidWeek. We hope that you will take the time to go through these pages which have great gift ideas to check everyone off your holiday list.

Also, if you look through each page, you will find an official entry form for a chance to win $500 in cash to help you enjoy the holidays!

From our ohana at the Honolulu Star-Advertiser and MidWeek to yours, mahalo for your continued support and Mele Kalikimaka me ka Hau’oli Makahiki Hou!
