For the second straight year, everybody won at the community recycling drive in Kahaluu. Known officially as Aloha ‘Aina Earth Day No. 29, the massive July 7 cleanup pulled together an amazing pile of junk and recyclables for the benefit of KualoaHeeia Ecumenical Youth Project (KEY). It also allowed the still-unopened Kahaluu Regional Park to be of some use to volunteers as a staging area for old appliances, car parts, containers, tires, batteries, green waste, cell phones, computers, ink cartridges and much more. Schnitzer Steel representative Rene Mansho presented a check for $4,800 to KEY’s board of directors Aug. 27. That’s $3,000 more than last year that the nonprofit agency can pour back into services for area families.
