Aloha to all. To my surprise and dismay, construction has started on the soccer field at Camp Maluhia. I was talking to one of my buddies that work for Goodfellows and he said that they are going to start work on the field today. Goodfellows has already moved that irrigation line that was in the middle of the field today. Starting tomorrow, they will start filling in the area where we usually launch from and raise it about two feet. There will be semi-trucks going up and down Maluhia starting tomorrow to do this. They will be using the dirt that comes from the improvements that they will be making on Kahekili Hwy this weekend. The road to Kahakuloa will be blocked off tonight till Monday morning (from Camp Maluhia to past Kahakuloa town will be closed). As I mentioned earlier, my buddy said that there will be access to Maluhia, *but*, Goodfellows will be grading and filling the launch area for the soccer field. Is this the beginning of the end? Time will tell. I'll be going to Poli Poli tomorrow. Best regards, Al Battad
