Val Y. is going to kill me, as I am again going to Yelp about another fabulous facility on one of…read moreour military bases. Lockwood Tennis Courts are located near the Sharkey Theatre on Joint Base Pearl Harbor. There are only two tennis courts, and you need to reserve them by calling the Wentworth Pro Shop. What's awesome about these courts is that although there are only two courts, the courts are back to back from each other, and separated by a tall concrete wall (that serves as a backboard), therefore you don't have to chase your balls on the other court or ask people to pass your ball back to your court. Other perks - good lighting system, and the bathrooms are located in the building right across the street.

A small grassy park area, it really is an Avenue to walk through till you get to the beach. A short walk they do have an outside shower rinse area before you walk into the picturesque Kailua beach. Great for walking the dogs,running,you can SUP, kayak to the Mokes, swim, fish or just daydream on the beach getting golden brown ( with the help of SPF!) I don't want to give too much away, but I think everyone knows by now!

I've been a student at HSU for about a month now and I haven't witnessed any of the horrors…read morementioned in the 1-star review. True, there are some errors in the publication, but that was pointed out by the staff from the very beginning and apologies were made. I could have used the GI Bill, but I chose to pay out of pocket. $9,300 may sound like a lot, but considering that about half of that is the cost for equipment/materials that you keep (compare this to a traditional college where you buy books and or supplies for your major)... it seems like a pretty reasonable fare. You're purchasing SPECIALIZED equipment and textbooks to become a certified professional diver. Other perks you get free as a student: unlimited air refills ($10-15 a tank), discounts at the dive shop (10%), free boat rides outside of class if the private charters have seats available (~$125 per ride), and outstanding customer service. Staff is both professional and laid back. They contact you immediately when there are any issues and they're willing to work with you. E.g. If GI Bill is late for tuition, HSU lets you use rentals free until the payment comes through so you're not stuck with an unexpected bill for equipment purchase. They do what they can to minimize the negative impact on students. Curriculum emphasizes safety first. Might get boring but it's there for a reason. If you're a danger to yourself or others, an ass-chewing is better than an injury or death. You might have your feelings hurt but your body remains intact. Instructors are rotated which can be both a blessing and a curse. I've had two instructors now (Brian and Chris). Both are very knowledgeable and have different teaching styles. This is by design to better serve ALL the students because not everyone learns the same way. Keep in mind you aren't the only one trying to learn... Pro-tip: If you don't understand something, speak up respectfully and they'll be happy to help you learn another way. Even the other classes' instructors are happy to make time for you if you just ask (Thanks Charles!). HSU isn't right for everyone. However, if you can come with a positive attitude, be prepared before you go class, and be willing to learn and enjoy the ocean... this is a great place to be a student! It's a tight knit community that supports diver growth and professional development in and out of the classroom. I've learned a lot about diving from all sorts of people: Angie and Sherye (admin), Cody and Kelvin (boat Captains), as well as George, Chris, and Alana (Schofield Dive Shop). The first time I met the team at Honolulu Scuba Company (Honolulu Dive Shop), they helped me track down and recover my wetsuit that walked off the Ala Moana Harbor on its own... I really don't think you can find this great of an education, community, and customer service anywhere else. $9,300... totally worth it!

However, this park is next to an elementary school, so, it's convenient for the school children! There are two sets of playground equipment, a water fountain, basketball courts, restrooms, and a baseball field. There's only street parking. It's best to go early before a crowd arrives!

There's a swimming pool that's open to the public during certain hours! On the right side of the road, there's a large field - for flag football and soccer, tennis courts, and a skateboard park. All of the parking is free! I drop off my ballot in the parking lot on the gym side of the park. It's so convenient!

Maybe my OCD kicked in because it bothered me that this Park in Kaneohe didn't have any photos or…read morereviews for it... Let's take care of that now!!! First of all, I couldn't find the entrance to this Park. The directions on my GPS led me to a dead end street. I had to move the pin on the Yelp app to the place where Kapunahala District Park is located on the map. Editing has been submitted! There is a building with a sign that reads "Kapunahala Playground". Maybe this place was a "Playground" before it became a "Park". I'm not sure since Kaneohe is not my Hometown... I just live here... haha! I guess you would normally enter this Park either from the Kapunahala Elementary School side or the from the set of stairs that lead up to the playground from Anoi Road. It was empty except for a guy walking his dog at 7:30am on a Saturday. There were some feral chickens roaming around the large grassy area. The paved volleyball court is waiting for a net and the two paved basketball courts also look inviting. The only thing is that it's not covered, so when it rains - and it rains unexpectedly - it'll get messy... That's why the restroom is convenient - along with the water fountains. The baseball area has two dugouts and two sets of bleachers for the audiences. There's also a jungle gym for the younger children - it's nice and colorful with a padded ground! This park looks relatively safe and has many options for families with tables and benches for picnics. I'll check it out again some weekend when people are around and report back! TTFN!

However it should be harder now since apparently "Lost" took over the area and began filming there. Anyways if you get to the back entrance where there is a residential area you will come upon the first of the seven bridges. The myth goes something like this: the area is haunted, there is a bamboo forest and you will never find the seventh bridge. Also when my friends got separated (we did this at night by the way...i know super smart) two of them came upon a shack. Not something I would want to run into. It wreaks of some horror film movie plot. Anyways I got too chicken and bounced back to the car with another of the girls while the rest of the idiots braved the forest and possibility of wild boars......no thank you. nevertheless the exhilaration was good enough for me. You must do this if the gate is still open in the back entrance. At night time it's SUPER scary and kinda dangerous so I recommend the day time.
