Lānaʻi’s girls flag football team played its first home game in program history, defeating Hana 45–0 in rainy conditions. The game came after weeks of delays from travel issues and Kona storms that pushed back the start of the season.
Three students from Lānaʻi High and Elementary School represented the island at the DOE State Education Day, the only school from Maui County in attendance. Their projects ranged from plantation history and student life to emergency response training. The trip, planned as a single day, turned into several days off island after Kona storm delays stranded the group.
Vehicles have been getting stuck at Hulopoʻe Beach Park, with at least four needing assistance so far. Rangers have marked muddy areas with cones and are asking drivers to use caution and give crews space as cleanup continues.
Footage from March 13 and 14 shows flooding, fallen trees, and storm damage across Lānaʻi, including a downed power line and debris near the mauka softball field. Hulopoʻe Beach Park’s parking lot flooded as runoff moved toward the coast. The rainfall created temporary runoff across the island, including in Cavendish where keiki bodyboarded in Iwiole Gulch.
Lānaʻi High & Elementary School marked Homecoming 2025–2026 with a musical genres theme, as each class took on a distinct sound for the week.
