    Halloween in Kaneohe
    Lala C.

    Kaneohe Christmas Parade is on today, December 3, 2022. Fun to watch or become involved. Wonderful to see the return of decorations at police station intersection. Really missed that and our local block party. Meeting and greeting neighbors and friends with festive food and drink offers. Would love to see that revived. LOVE KANEOHE!

    Beautiful day in Kaneohe!

    I just love Kaneohe town. I live on the West side and the communities are polar opposite. Alway cool weather and somewhat of a laidback feeling which is so inviting. The scenery with the beautiful green lush Ko'olau mountains you can never get tired of. kaneohe offers so many fun adventures for a family in so many different styles and the shopping... you can't beat Windward Mall and all the cute shops and eating establishments. Looking for some fun times visits Kaneohe and all it has to offer.

    The only things that would make Kaneohe better would be a Walmart, Costco, Trader Joes, and Kohls. For now, I'm quite happy about living and working in the 96744. I'm actually a townie - born and raised in Honolulu. When I got a job in Kaneohe (north of Honolulu), I started looking for a house nearby because I would fall asleep at the wheel after working a double shift. I thought that driving the hairpin turn on the Pali Highway was kind of dangerous during the winter with the rain beating down on my almost non-visible windshield. So, for safety reasons and convenience, I purchased a "starter home" in 2003. It was a cute 960 square foot house with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. My little yard was manageable and my neighbors were nice. My backyard was the Mormon church parking lot, so it was peaceful at the end of the cul-de-sac! I really enjoyed the location - it was close to the supermarket, the library, the police dapartment and the fire station! The district park with its pool was nearby, along with an elementary school and beach park. After ten years, my little property almost doubled in price! It was a good time to sell, so I found a great realtor and sold my piece of Kaneohe Town and bought a larger house and lot (still in Kaneohe)! So, if Honolulu prices are too high for you, consider buying in Kaneohe Town. It's accessible by all three highways: Pali, Likelike, and the H-3. The weather is nice and cool - not like the Leeward side - and not rainy like Manoa and Nuuanu. It's in the middle of great shopping: Windward Mall, Kaneohe Bay Shopping Center and Windward City Shopping Center. It's surrounded by the beautiful and majestic Koolau mountain range. It's still relatively affordable, so think about it!

Katheryn was an absolute delight who shared with us her passion and knowledge for the beauty, heart and soul of this piece of paradise. Talk about a "off the road" treasure. This was truly an unique experience. More adults and photographers need to come and capture the historic significance of this hidden gem. At one time there were 400 fishponds. Now less than 30. Im always looking for places to take guests for discovery. I was amazed it took me 30 years to visit this..yet it took a Kaneohe resident 60 years! Better late than never. Want a covid free experience in the open air, with an easy light stroll around a fishpond? Try this place. Ask for Katheryn, you wont be disappointed! Support and always respect..Native Hawaii culture and history.

Waikalua Loko is a fishpond, a much smaller one compared to the more popular Heeia fishpond further up in Kaneohe. It is located on road past Puohala Elementary School until you reach the fork in the road -go left and follow dirt road to the end. Anyways, there are many fishponds that still need some aloha and preservation in the Kaneohe area and I am glad that there are efforts being done for Waikalua Loko. If you are a school group, volunteer group, or any kind of group in general that is looking for volunteer opportunities, Waikalua Loko is definitely one that is in dire need! Before exploring the fishpond, we started with an 'oli followed by a great educational and informational session about the fishpond and even Kaneohe in general. After gaining more knowledge about the fishpond, we spend an hour or so doing some beach clean up work. You will get wet and dirt that is for sure. Make sure your bring the essential sunscreen, water, food, change of clothes, and proper footwear! If you want to just get away and serve the 'aina, the land, please consider Waikalua Loko fishpond! It is an asset to Hawaii and the island the 'Oahu in efforts to preserve Native Hawaiian cultural preservation!

So when the chance came I was definitely excited and ended up learning a lot. To teachers especially if you have handicap students: Do it!! There was a hike (which my professor forgot to tell me about) to the site we worked at, but depending on the severity of the students disability it's doable (though they may complain a lot especially if you don't prepare them ahead of time). Plus there is a road where the guys were able to take me back down in a truck (which if my professor had let them know ahead of time they probably could have brought me up, though I won't tell him, but the minor discomfort I felt was well worth the satisfaction of what we accomplished that day).

I came for the first time last month and was treated to an amazingly therapeutic day of clearing invasives in order to allow koa to naturally come up. Learned about a few plants and how to identify them and was treated to an amazing lunch after, cooked by volunteers, and took some edible hibiscus home for cooking. Although I spent three hours clearing, I definitely feel like I came away with so much more than I put in and regretted putting off coming for wanting to sleep in, or do other errands, in the few months prior. I have been missing out on a lot. I came for the second time this past weekend and we spent some time clearing weeds from several different sites on the farm, which we then fed to the pigs. Other activities include kapa pounding, hale building, garden maintenance, and cooking, so lots of opportunity to do what suits you and your abilities. The staff is great. I worked with Aulani this weekend, who is a total gem and a staffer there for the last six years. She introduced me to maile hohono, which puts a stop to mosquito bites and OMFG it's a miracle plant. Lots of people here fulfilling volunteer requirements, but I'm just doing it cuz I love it. Make sure to dress appropriately with things you can get dirty in. Bring your own water, even better bring your own plates/silverware for lunch, and be prepared for a day of well-being and rejuvenation. Make sure to also check out Roots Cafe to support local farms/food. I haven't been myself, but can't wait to go.

I couldn't exactly run through the mud because my shoes would sink so far down. It was a great workout! They have obstacle courses throughout-- like a big slide, over and unders, monkey bar things, tire obstacles, and climbing on the beach. The combination of people that go are super awesome. You have military people, groups dressed up, families, and those people who like to just scream randomly! They gave oranges and bananas at the end for all race finishers. MONSTER gave out some drinks for free too. I usually don't drink that, but the zero sugar ones tasted pretty good. It was great to see the yelp family there too. Yelp had a booth that took your picture at the end! If you plan on doing this-- wear your bathing suit underneath. Wear knee high socks (if you don't wear pants) and I recommend bringing a towel, change of clothes with you and flip flops. You have the option to hose off all the mud/dirt at the end. Oh and I borrowed duct tape from some nice strangers. (Thank you to them!) The website and information packet say don't use duct tape on your shoes, but it's necessary if you want to keep your shoes from sticking in the mud. Overall it's a fun run! I only ran parts of it, yet managed to finish in the top 25 for the women's division. So if I can do it-- you can too!

I'm clueless of the details like my friend Nadine C but know that it's always so stunning to get a quick glance at regardless and I did have that chance as I was dropping off some cans for recycling and to see that it was located right next to the wall which was really cool.

Standing 5 stories high, this 14,000 square foot masterpiece was created by Hilton Alves from Brazil. It took him just 8 days to complete on October 26, 2013. However, 6 months of planning,150 gallons of paint, and $10,000 (for supplies) went into it! This Landmark in Kalihi, on the corner of Waiakamilo and Kalani Streets, reminds me of the Angel Wings project by Colette Miller. Colette has artwork all over the world, and so does Hilton Alves. While Ms. Miller reminds us that "We are the angels of the earth", Mr. Alves has more of an environmental theme and has educational projects which call upon children in our communities to get involved. There are about 11 wave murals in 5 different cities and 3 countries! For more information, visit the website: TheArtOfHilton.com Aloha!
