June 02, 2010 | 05:20 PM Ugh…"swank." Overused, it's fast becoming antiquated in my personal dictionary (its roots do go back nearly two centuries). Everything is swanky this, swanky that—so much so that things with real swagger garner a little less (insert onomatopoeia of choice) when the word is applied. So while still in search of a replacement term, I'll stress that when we at MauiTime say "swank," we mean it; and plans for the Plantation Jazz benefit for the Arts Education for Children's Group (AECG) promise nothing but. The organization "dedicated to improving the quality of education in our schools by restoring music programs" scored with crackerjack community-organizer Matt Lane orchestrating Saturday's event. To be held on the grounds of the multi-million dollar Rainbow House at Ka'anapali Coffee Farms, the event will feature the 17-piece 1 O'clock Jazz Band from Montana State University, plus steel guitar master Henry Allen and other musical guests. Peruse art installations, informational booths and play "Family Feud" with GameShow Fanatics. From the beverages and pupus by Chef Casey Piquet and Kona Red Coffee Fruit to the panoramic views from the saline infinity pool, attendees will do good for our keiki and feel, well, swanky. 357-0920, m_lane@hotmail.com
