Governor Neil Abercrombie will make several stops on Maui on Thursday, including a visit to the County’s reWailuku studio workshop.

The Governor will begin his Valley Isle visit with a stop at the Maui Economic Opportunity Office in Wailuku on Thursday morning, February, 9, 2012. While there, he will provide remarks to the Maui Non-Profit Directors Association.

The next stop is a visit to the Maui County Planning Department’s reWailuku studio workshop at 10 a.m.  The workshops are geared toward getting the community involved in redesigning Wailuku and having a direct hand in shaping the town’s future.

“We thank the governor for stopping by during his brief stay on Maui and appreciate his support of our efforts to revitalize the Wailuku community,” said Ryan Piros, Assistant Communications Director, in a press release this afternoon.

Another scheduled stop includes luncheon remarks before the Women in Renewable Energy group at UH Maui College on Thursday afternoon.
