	COMMUNITIES                             Makawao Makawao translated in Hawaiian (depending on who translates) is 'Eye of the Dawn' or 'Forest Beginning', both are equally appropriate. Just below the town are rolling Pineapple and Sugar-Cane Fields, and just above are the rolling pastures and Forests on the Slopes of Haleakala. HISTORY AND FACTS: Last century this area was settled by Portuguese immigrants, who then raised cattle on the slopes above. Makawao is a Cowboy (Paniolo) Town, with false store fronts looking a little like Dodge City. There is a diverse assortment of Restaurants, gift shops, antique shops, and of course the grain and Paniolo stores.
