SCHEDULE, CHAPTER 15, ARTICLE 8, SECTION 15-68.1, HAWAII COUNTY CODE
1983 (1995 EDITION, AS AMENDED), BY RENAMING THE KONA SCENIC PARK, IN
HONOR OF CLARENCE LUM WON, "CLARENCE LUM WON PARK."
BE IT ORDAINED BY THE COUNCIL OF THE COUNTY OF HAWAI`L
SECTION 1. Purpose. The purpose of this ordinance is to recognize and commemorate
in perpetuity the many years of dedication and hard work that Clarence Lum Won contributed
toward the improvement of Kona Scenic Park for the children of the community, by renaming
the park in his honor, the "Clarence Lum Won Park."
Clarence Lum Won was born on December 13, 1938 in Kainaliu, Kona, Hawaii. The
oldest of three children, as a senior in high school, he was in charge of taking care of his mother
and two brothers, operating the family coffee farm, and running the family household. He
worked during the late 1950's through the 1960's as an entertainer with the Hawaiian Airlines.
Mr. Lum Won then worked over twenty years in the construction industry until disability forced
his retirement.
Mr. Lum Won was determined to provide a sports field for his children and the children
of the community. As a result of his extraordinary dedication and seventeen years of hard work,
the unimproved Kona Scenic Park was transformed into a playing field for baseball and football.
In addition to donations from the Kona Community, Clarence contributed his personal resources
and countless hours of labor towards the improvement of the pazk. Improvement projects
included: clearing brush; constructing backstops, dugouts, picnic tables, scorekeeper and
equipment sheds, and goal posts; landscaping the park; and installing fencing and gates. Even
after completion of all of these projects, Clarence, with typical aloha and humility, said that there
were things which still needed to be done.
Clazence Lum Won passed away on November 7, 2007 at the age of 68. He was loved by
his family and respected by his community.
The purpose of this ordinance is to commemorate and recognize in perpetuity Clarence
Lum Won's significant contributions to the recreational programs in the community.
Therefore, pursuant to subsection 15-67(a)(2)(C)(i), Hawaii County Code 1983 (2005
Edition, as amended), that certain open azea identified by TMK (3) 8-1-024:031 and currently
known as the Kona Scenic Park is hereby renamed, in Mr. Lum Won's honor, the "Clazence
Lum Won Park."
