Aloha Big Island!

The recently concluded 2023 State Legislative session continues to be the subject of much debate and Waimea residents will have an opportunity for an in-person discussion with Sen. Tim Richards and Rep. David Tarnas about what occurred – good and challenging – for North Hawai’i and the entire County and State during the June 1 Waimea Town Meeting from 5:30 to 7 p.m. in the W.M. Keck Observatory conference room. Lt. Gov. Sylvia Luke will also speak.

The Live Like Treʻ Foundation is coming to the Big Island to celebrate the life and legacy of a fallen Maui firefighter who was a 2016 graduate and star athlete at Kamehameha Schools Hawai‘i in Kea‘au.

Ropes and monk seal caution signs are being removed from Kaimana Beach in Honolulu, after a Hawaiian monk seal pup has been moved, after weaning over the weekend.

Mahalo for your readership!
