KAIWIKI CLEANUP
Saturday, Feb. 15 was our road cleanup day, we
had the best turnout yet and consequently the
biggest (unfortunately) garbage haul. Not
pictured, are Sharon O’Connell and Rick, Hilary
and Tom and their friend Rachel (who is from
elsewhere), Charlie Pavao and Jean Trefethen. A
sizable group (hope I didn’t miss anyone). We
in a bit over an hour – from the end of the
pavement all the way to Wainaku – the old saw
about many hands is again validated. THANK YOU!
PARK PAVILION SAGA
I am probably the only one who can testify that
progress, (glacial progress), is being made, as
there are no outward signs that anything is happening. The county has in their possession, for nearly a
month, a list of the materials needed. They now require estimates for all items, something we only
learned this past week. So while frustrations abound, and virtuous patience is being tested, we are
grinding away at it and expect to see material progress this summer, certainly (?) this year. So as we are
in the the third year of working at this, certainty, is a moving target. BUT, when we get the materials in
hand, we will need people to help, that is, to do the renovation work – which is a new roof and all the
support structure as well as siding, gutters and paint.

MEET & GREET – County Council candidate Heather Kimball will be coming by to introduce herself and
be introduced to our community association..
RECYCLING
For those concerned with the recent reduction of recycling services, Paradise Plastics will take 1, 2, 4, 5
plastic containers. Business Services also takes 1, 2’s (bottle shaped). Recycling is dif (shouldn’t be),
a short discussion at our meeting might bring up some avenues that would make it easier for concerned
people to deal with their plastic.
