Former Van Halen front man Sammy Hagar will be on hand for the grand opening today of Sammy's Beach Bar & Grill at Maui's Kahului International Airport.

The opening marks the first airport location of the popular Hagar's signature restaurant chain. Hagar will dedicate his profits from this restaurant to local community children's charities through the Hagar Family Foundation.

The Maui restaurant was developed in partnership with HMSHost Corp. It is one of several new eateries at the Kahului Airport that are a part of an expansion by HMSHost, which has a lease through 2013 to run the Kahului Airport concessions.

HMSHost has a growing presence in Hawai'i with operations in the Lihu'e Airport and a recently extended lease at Honolulu International Airport, which runs through 2014.
