MAUKA TO MAKAI STATE PARK CLEAN-UPS: Sand Island State Recreation Area

DLNR State Parks
State Parks and community partners will be hosting Mauka to Makai State Park Clean-ups August 25th to 27th.
State Parks installed water-bottle filling stations with a NOAA grant to reduce the utilization of single-use plastics in State Parks. We want you and other community volunteers to Protect What You Love by participating in a Mauka to Makai State Parks Clean-up.
State Parks is holding a park clean-up at 3 different parks on August 25 to August 27 from 830 AM to 12 PM.
Volunteers can participate at:
Sand Island State Recreation Area (Makai) on Friday, August 25th,
Makiki Valley State Recreation Area (Mauka) on Saturday, August 26th, and 
Leʻahi (Diamond Head) State Monument (Kula) on Sunday, August 27th.
These parks share the same Kona moku (district) and are adjacent to waterways or shorelines that feed into the larger Māmala Bay waters off Honolulu. To prevent rubbish from entering our waterways and ocean, and from becoming marine debris, volunteers will participate in debris removal throughout the parks. FREE refillable water bottles will be given to registered volunteers (one per ʻohana) while supplies last.
Registration Required. Participants can register to volunteer at each park through the following link. Attached is a flyer for the event. Please feel free to help disseminate.
