Kawamoto Swim Stadium to reopen today

The Department of Parks and Recreation announced Thursday that the Charles “Sparky” Kawamoto Swim Stadium in Hilo was scheduled to reopen today.

The pool closed on July 9 due to a malfunctioning pump used to circulate the water.

The Department of Parks and Recreation thanked pool users and the general public for their understanding and patience throughout the closure.

The regular swim schedule will resume and can be viewed at:
