Friends for Fitness led a cleanup Saturday of the popular Makaeo Walking/Jogging Path at Old Kona Airport Park.
Several volunteers helped beautify the 0.7-mile path, which circumnavigates an array of garden plots maintained by various people and community groups throughout the year.
The path is highly used. A survey conducted about five years ago showing during the busiest times of the day, during the early morning hours and after work hours, that typically 100 people use it.
