Short term:
• Building collaborative community partnerships: (Tie our community resources together
to support programs and give opportunity to enhance our communities.)
• Support funds for trainings and help provide awide-range of training opportunites to
empower individual communties:
• "Train-a-trainer" approaches for more sustainable programs in communities.
• Offer transportation opportunites to already existing programs;
and after school sports bus, transportation to county Parks and Recreation events:
example: Track, Novice Swim etc.
Long term:
• Address the need for additional pools in the Puna district that is ON "the beaten path" to
service the majority of citizens.
For example: The population well exceeds the need having over 31,000 residents and growing.
Puna proved to be the largest growing community in the state, as result of the last census.
Comparing Puna to Kona and Hilo; Kona with 37,000 people which has access to numerous
beaches and two centrally located community pools. Hilo aquatic's supports: 3 pools, beach
access, plus community access to private and agency pools such as, the YWCA and Yacht
Club.
• A pool located in the Mountain View, Kurtistown, or Kea'au Shipman Park area should
be a priority vision of this council.
In closing, the county should consider with Kamehameha schools and the Kea'au district school
complex the vision of holding National events a futuristic possiblitiy, enhancing the health of our
people and bring economic capabilities by building and properly maintaining facilities.
Suggestion: the county could study the YWCA's salt water system installed far future cost
effective practices.
Installing the salt water system cost run approximately $1,000 annually as apposed to monthly.
