Mow the small lawn at Makaeo walking path weekly using a self propelled (provided) lawnmower. The mowing day can be flexible. The mowing would be completed during park operating hours, 7 am until dark. The mowing should take about 45 minutes to complete while enjoying the sounds of waves lapping at the park shoreline. The grass clippings are collected snd composted on site. The opportunity can be split between volunteers to decrease the number of days per month one volunteers. Cleaning up the mower after mowing and filling gas tank so it’s ready for the next mower are tasks one would also do.

Description
Friends For Fitness began in 1992 to decrease the prevalence of sedentary lifestyles and to improve the health of Hawaii residents. Our mission is to create and promote a healthy, livable, and physically active community. Our members are community volunteers who are passionate about improving physical activity resources in our community.

Projects relating to the Old Kona Airport State Park started back in 1993 with support for the construction of the 50-meter pool and jogging path. The succulent garden and dozens of volunteer gardens welcome joggers and strollers daily. Recently completed lawn area attracts families for picnics and outside yoga. Current projects include development of a creative arts garden, installation of new water supply system, and an expanded native plants garden and memorial area
