Ka'upu's voice resonated above the tinkling of wine glasses in a traditional Hawaiian greeting as reps from Maui got down to the business of introducing Maui's new environmental and traditional experience marketing program. Maui's new marketing campaign, Malama (meaning to take care or look after) Maui, is one of the first steps in selling the lesser-known Hawaiian Island from an environmental, adventure travel and traditional Hawaiian cultural angle.

 |
| Agents Party at Arizona Presentation | Canadians love Arizona and they prove it by flocking to the southwestern state in greater numbers every year, said Chris Ryall, Canada Representative of the Arizona Office of Tourism at the jam-packed product launch held last night at the Old Mill in Toronto. Last year Canadian arrivals were up 19 per cent and totalled 336, 300 visitors with a surprising 100,000 of that number coming from Ontario. Visitor nights rose even more, 26 per cent.
