Sasha already has his costume picked out for the Aloha Cat Fanciers’ Halloween Cat Show Saturday at McCoy Pavilion (261-4354). Did I say “he”? Apparently Kailua resident Joan Harris‘s purebred feline had so much fur at birth it obscured a vital piece of information about himself. So now he’s Mr. Sash to his pals, but his papers say different. Anyhoo, the cats’ costume parade starts at noon, in the middle of a serious cat show with mainland judges. There will be food for humans and cats alike, regardless of sex ... Comedian Dave Lancaster and others share Halloween stories at King Intermediate’s Oct. 30 Read Aloud and Book Fair ...

Duke Aiona, and Maggie gets schools superintendent Pat Hamamoto. Their social studies teacher is Kathleen Nullet ... Happy Birthday to Tisha Falcon Lehfeldt, a lay pastor with husband Jason at Kaneohe’s Mountain View Community Church. Hit party favor at her Oct. 6 bash near Kailua beach, marking her 40th year, was bright red wax lips for all - a trademark look of the vivacious and VERY LOUD friend and counselor to many Windward women and teens over the years ...

Talented (like his big sister Jasmeen) Kailua hunk Sterling Sulieman has landed the new role of Dre on the ABC soap All my Children after a stint with The Bold and The Beautiful and Disney’s High School Musical tour. Dre is described as “a young African-American man whose garage band sets up shop next to the Martin home” ... Yet another faithful flock is worshiping cafeteria-style: New Hope Kailua’s pastor Rick Stinton held his first service at 10 a.m. Sept. 30 in the Kailua High School cafeteria.
