Kona police invite community to an ʻāina-centered scavenger hunt Saturday morning

A scavenger hunt will result in a beach cleanup in Kailua-Kona at 7 a.m. this Saturday.

The Hawaiʻi Police Department’s Kona Community Policing Section is partnering with Miss Aloha Hawaiʻi Scarlette Burnham-Rosario and inviting community members to participate in a Scavenger Hunt Beach Cleanup at Old Airport Recreation Area.

Participants will assist in removing litter and debris from the shoreline while promoting environmental stewardship and community pride through mālama ʻāina. The event is for individuals and families who want to help keep Hawaiʻi Island’s coastline clean while participating in a fun, interactive scavenger hunt experience.

The free event is set to begin at 7 a.m. on Saturday, May 16. Community members are encouraged to bring friends and family to the event, since it is designed to bring everyone together for a meaningful morning of service while helping preserve Hawaiʻi’s beaches for future generations.
