Title: Kokohead closed?
Post by: oldfart on March 11, 2026, 04:07:00 PM
Range is closed due to bad weather, I think.
That's what I heard.
Not really sure though. Where I live the weather is pretty nice today.

Yes.  Lots of places are shutting down.  And the governor has proclaimed emergency status.

Gov. Green's proclamation declaring a state of emergency from last Monday through Wednesday, 18 March, didn't go into detail as to which offices or activities were to remain open.

Almost all government offices and programs were to be closed.  I know on Friday, the Department of Human Services was closed until next week.

Offices that can serve customers over the phone and whose employees can work from home may be available.

As usual, phone ahead first rather than just showing up.

"Indefinite" is a scary word for the 2a Community in Hawaii.

This word is a favorite for HPD Firearms Division, City and County, and State government.

did you know our governor is a REAL doctor?
not many do, because he never mentions it...

With the lack of consistency I won't bother to fight traffic and stupid drivers just to make that long trek to find out they closed because they wanted to.

There's no traffic on the weekends....but plenty stoopid drivers.
Get a dashcam. I caught a white Tesla yesterday that signaled right, then turned left.... No, it wasn't zippz.  :rofl:

I make the long trek to kokohead to fight boredom and maintain some degree of marksmanship skill. I also don't have grandchildren to babysit here....yet.

I just heard from a reliable source that Kokohead will be closed on Saturday 4.11 and most likely be open on Sunday 4.12.

But then again, my hearing ain't so good either. 🤣🤣
