Hakalau Point Preservation Association

We are a nonprofit corporation formed to protect Hakalau Point from development.

We exist to: 

  1. Provide support to Hawaii County in its efforts to acquire Hakalau Point pursuant to the Hawaii County Public Access, Open Space and Natural Resources Preservation program for the purpose of preserving this historically significant coastal land of natural beauty for public outdoor recreation and educational purposes. 
  2. Provide support for the establishment of a park on Hakalau Point to honor and commemorate the legacy of the sugar plantation workers who labored and lived along the Hamakua Coast of Hawaii for several decades.  Establishment of the park may also include installation and maintenance of pathways, benches, native plants and trees, historical signage and educational information about plantation life and the sugar cane industry. 
  3. Provide funds and other support to the County and its agents for the purpose of helping to maintain and sustain the proposed memorial park at Hakalau Point. 
  4. To provide funds and other support to help maintain the current County Park located below Hakalau Point at Hakalau Bay.  
  5. Support efforts to preserve and protect the habitat, scenic views, and natural beauty of Hakalau Point and its environs for the benefit of the public, and to discourage and oppose commercial activities and/or private development of Hakalau Point.

Here's a draft idea of what we're thinking about for the park:

When this community-initiated process is furthered and negotiations to acquire the property are completed, we plan to engage our community in a design charrette or workshop where we will come to consensus on the park's design.
