KAILUA — The Harold K.L. Castle Foundation is honored to bring to the community a free musical series called “Kanikapila in Kailua.” This monthly program perpetuates Hawaiian culture by creating a venue to celebrate the music of Windward Oahu. Some of Hawaii’s favorite musicians will be featured in the series, which will be held one Saturday a month from 4 to 5:30 p.m. on the second floor of the parking garage behind Longs and near Whole Foods Market in Kailua Town. 

The first “Kanikapila in Kailua” performance will take place Saturday, May 19 and feature Waipuna, a Na Hoku Hanohano award nominee. Waipuna is an exciting collaboration of three talented musicians, Kale Hannahs, Matt Sproat and David Kamakahi.

The following information is provided by the City & County of Honolulu:

The City and County of Honolulu received federal approval to construct a Kaneohe-Kailua gravity tunnel and associated influent pump station instead of the Kaneohe-Kailua Force Main and two multi-million gallon storage tanks. Eliminating the storage tanks will result in significant cost savings.  

The tunnel, estimated at 10 to 13 feet in diameter, will start at the Kaneohe Pre-Treatment Facility and traverse 3.2 miles to the Kailua Regional Wastewater Treatment Plant.

The City conducted several public information meetings with members of the Windward Oahu community to explain the options and take into account their input and concerns. The Environmental Impact Statement showed no significant impacts along the route.
