Keauhou Bay NEEDS YOUR HELP.

Kamehameha Schools are saying they need to make money and yet, they have two properties that are not two miles away from Keauhou Bay that are both fully developed and Kamehameha Schools hardly uses these lands.

Please ask them why they don't use these lands to make money instead of destroying and entire ecosystem in Keauhou Bay.

One of these properties has taken over a decade for them to develop, Kahalu'u Manowaiand they only use this huge beautiful park for their Private events, and Hale Laau property is right across the street from Kahalu'u Manowai and I haven't seen this land be used for anything for over 30 years.

These properties could be used to make money instead of destroying Keauhou Bay's ecosystem.

Money making ideas:

  • Wedding  Venue (Big Money Maker)

  • Farmers Markets Venue

  • Concert Venue

  • Movie Night to Connect Community 

  • Day passes...

Go to this video link to learn what else they want to do with Hawaiian Endowed land because Marissa Harman the rep for Kamehameha Schools told me they are going to offer "Full Access" to ALL their Hawaiian Endowed land to their bungalow resort tourists.

This page is NOT against the educational center they want to build in the already developed land and Marissa Harman said if they can't build their Bungalow Resort then they won't build this educational center for the community.

This page is FULLY against their Bungalow Resort Development they want to build by clearing the ONLY land that helps protect Keauhou Bay from golf course pollution runoff. Please go to page https://bigislandsupport.com/kbayinfo/ to learn more about this.

Steps YOUR CAN DO to Help Save Keauhou Bay. MAHALO for YOUR STRENGTH and COURAGE!


STEP 1  SIGN AND SHARE THESE OPPOSING PETITIONS
Making Comments on Petitions is Extremely helpful because your comments are shared in emails. Thank you


STEP 2 KAMEHAMEHA SCHOOLS HAVE BEEN IGNORING THE THOUSANDS OF SIGNATURES OPPOSING THEIR BUNGALOW RESORT. THE BEST THING TO DO IS VOICE YOURSELF IN PERSON BECAUSE KEAUHOU BAY NEEDS YOUR VOICE AND YOUR VOICE MATTERS!
PLEASE CALL, EMAIL AND STOP BY Kamehameha Schools office 78-6831 Alii Dr, Suite 239, Kailua Kona and let them know how you feel about their bungalow resort development. Schedule an in person meeting with Marissa Harman. I met with them in person twice and they need to hear from more people.
IF YOU ARE ANY PART HAWAIIAN YOUR VOICES MATTER MOST OF ALL because this IS YOUR Endowed Land and YOU have the right to speak directly to the decision makers, who are the trustees. PLEASE, ALL HAWAIIAN PEOPLE TELL KAMEHAMEHA SCHOOLS REP MARISSA HARMAN THAT YOU WANT A MEETING WITH THE TRUSTEES. THIS WILL SERIOUSLY HELP SAVE KEAUHOU BAY BECAUSE THIS IS YOUR ENDOWED LAND AND YOUR VOICES MATTER MOST OF ALL!
WE MUST DEMAND OUR VOICES BE HEARD OR THEY WILL TAKE KEAUHOU BAY AND GIVE IT TO TOURISTS.
PLEASE STAND UP FOR THE PORTECTION OF KEAUHOU BAY!
Tell Kamehameha Schools they have Kahalu'u Manowai and Hale Laau that are already developed lands that they HARDLY USE BUT ONLY for their private events and they can use these lands to make money instead of destroying an entire ecosystem in Keauhou Bay, and they probably have other lands they can use to make money as well, because they have more Hawaiian land than anyone and it was Endowed to them for the education of the Hawaiian people. This is why Hawaiian Voices are EXTREMELY IMPORTANT IN SAVING KEAUHOU BAY FROM BECOMING A BIG BUNGALOW RESORT.
Let Kamehameha Schools know that Keauhou Bay MUST be PRESERVED for future generations and not become an overcrowded polluted bay for tourists.
Mālama ‘Āina.
Email them at: ksrc@ksbe.edu, and maharman@ksbe.edu
Call: Marissa Harman 808-895-1865 (Rep in Keauhou Office)
West Hawaii Office (808) 322-5400
