Blowing the pū (conch shell) has many meanings, and is one way Hawaiians announce their presence when entering wahi pana (sacred places). Umi wears a traditional kapa malo garment, lei poʻo (head lei) made from ti leaf, and an intricate lei hulu (feather lei) around his neck.

The conch shell was then sounded on Emancipation day across the valleys. #knowyourcaribbean #co

Retiree Mary Lou Smith, who won the women’s division contest, agreed to marry fellow ‘conch-honker’ Rick Race – and they celebrated with a duet. | The Guardian
