The PAF is a 501c(3) Non-profit Organization whose mission is to (1) revitalize the Waikalua Loko fishpond, and (2) provide educational and stewardship opportunities for students, parents, educators, community, business and civic organizations that reflect and integrate core Hawaiian values. We have set different fee structures based on the visitor’s expectations:
Docent lead Program: (Kalama): This program is designed on DOE approved curriculum “Aloha `Aina It consists of various station activities, which are placed-based learning activities in the context of a Hawaiian Fishpond
Guided Tour and Service Project Orientated (Kukui ): Overview and history of the pond followed by a short tour. Participants will also do a service project.
$4.00 per participant for groups up to 49
$200 for groups 50 and over
Service Only (Hanalima): Groups come to just to service at the pond
$3.00 per participant for groups up to 50
Over 50, cover the cost of an additional Chemi-Toilet ($131)
We understand there may be some financial hardship and welcome a suggested donation amount that would help to cover the costs associated with maintaining the pond and operational fees as well furthering the mission of PAF.
Your kokua and consideration is greatly appreciated.
