Arbor Day

This Saturday from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., at the Maui Nui Botanical Garden, situated at 150 Kanaloa Ave., is the 20th annual Arbor Day event. Presentations on tree maintenance, talks on firewise landscaping, and the distribution of 2,000 native Hawaiian trees are all part of the program. For additional information, go to arbordayexpo.com.

With a rich history spanning over 110 years, Arbor Day is observed throughout Hawai’i in recognition of the benefits it provides for clean air, water, shade, and natural beauty—all of which promote healthy communities and a planet in good health. See what Arbor Day has to offer at Kaulunani.org.

Opening Of Kihei Overpass

The $16 million pedestrian overpass project on Piilani Highway caused a delay in the opening of Kulanihako’i High School in Kihei. The overpass is made to be long-lasting and simple to maintain, and it is anticipated to be finished by late December 2025. The DOE is in charge of the project’s design and community outreach, while the DOT will provide the funding, own it, and run it. At a recent meeting, authorities voiced support for the project despite reservations stemming from previous setbacks.

This decision is the result of a gradual process after the area was destroyed by wildfires. Even though some locals are worried about how tourism may affect their community, steps are being taken to meet the needs for daycare and housing. Following the tragedy, the mayors of every county in Hawaii promised to assist Maui County.
