Ocean Safety officials urge public to listen to lifeguards

EAST HONOLULU, OAHU (HawaiiNewsNow)- Ocean Safety officials are urging the public to listen to lifeguards for their own safety.

Officials released photos of five men at the Halona Blow Hole Saturday who repeatedly ignored city lifeguard requests to move from the edge to a safer location. A large swell then crashed into the rocks, putting them at an even higher risk of danger.

Ocean Safety lifeguards responded to the situation and found all five men climbing up the rocks to safety when they arrived.

No injuries were reported.

Hawaii Kai Fourth of July fireworks canceled, says organizer

July 4, 2012 at Maunalua Bay

HAWAII KAI, OAHU (HawaiiNewsNow)- Hawaii Kai will celebrate Independence Day 2013 without a firework show.

The Maunalua Communities Foundation (MCF) on Thursday announced, " Unfortunately this year's event will not feature fireworks because as of April 30 MCF has not received enough sponsor funding to afford the pyrotechnic display which represents 60 percent of the budget."

"We have explored all the alternatives to shooting the fireworks from a barge in the bay (most expensive option)," explained Dianne Glei, 2013 event chair. "However, we could not find a suitable land site and even when the fireworks company worked to provide us with a reduced-cost option, it was still too expensive based on our funding projections.
