KOA MOANA 25 Continues to Amaze At the Pohnpei Public Library

The Pohnpei Public Library is Being spruced up!

We can never tire from praising our brothers and sisters from the USA for making the Friends of the Pohnpei Public Library a better place for the people of the community. We are always excited to see them strolling through the smooth gates to help the Library get into tip top shape for all our patrons. 

 Breadfruit branch cuttings were cleared away...

A whole new fence entry for the bookmobile being installed...

The hut was repainted after the flooring was stabilized and repaired...

Some excellent electrical work was done and we now have increased visibility and security at night.

And would you believe it, ALL IN A DAY!

The US Marines have done such an amazing work at the library today, ticking off multiple projects and coordinating with the staff to complete each one perfectly. Once again, the Board of the Friends of the Pohnpei Public Library is very pleased with the kind gestures witnessed here today and would like to express how thankful they are to the Koa Moana 25! The staff are also very appreciative of being surrounded by good looking people doing good looking things. 

Kalahngan lap! See you soon please!

Koa Moana 25 Finally Rids the Near Invicible Breadfruit Stump at the Pohnpei Public Library

Mission Stump Dump Complete!

With sheer skill and man-power the US Marines have cleared away the pimple of the Friends of the Pohnpei Public Library land-scape, a breadfruit stump that has plagued us since the 80's. In a fraction of the day, it was gone and we were looking at a freshly cleared patch of ground that we cannot wait to wildly angle our office vehicles over.  

With that being said, we appreciate the Koa Moana 25 for working with us to not only beautify but also improve accessibility of the FPPL grounds. The hard work and dedication that you show to improving one of Pohnpei's most important learning spaces is greatly appreciated. 

The Board of the Pohnpei Public Library would like to show its deepest gratitude to the Koa Moana 25 for showing up and doing amazing work for the community. 

Thank you for your service! We respectfully salute you and look forward to further cooperation on the week's wish-list for the library and for the people. 

Koa Moana Team Helps Secure and Beautify the Pohnpei Public Library

Rolling in the New 

There’s something special happening at the Pohnpei Public Library — and it comes with a fresh swing of the front gate.

Thanks to the efforts of the Koa Moana 25, our once-pesky, hard-to-shut front gate has been upgraded to a smooth-swinging entryway. This improvement not only makes entering the library more welcoming for our visitors, but it also adds a practical layer of convenience and security to the property.

But the gate is just the beginning.

The Koa Moana Team has also begun repairing the small hut near the playground, an important space that serves both functional and recreational purposes for families and children visiting the library grounds. Their work ensures that this structure remains safe, sturdy, and accessible for years to come.

In addition, the team has taken on critical repairs to the fencing surrounding the property, reinforcing and restoring various sections to strengthen the overall security of the library. These enhancements are essential in maintaining a safe environment for the community, especially our young readers and families who frequent the area.

The Board of the Friends of the Pohnpei Public Library extends its heartfelt thanks to Koa Moana 25 for their dedication, skill, and care in supporting the library and the wider community. Their efforts reflect a spirit of service and partnership that truly makes a difference.

As these improvements continue, we invite the public to stop by and see the positive changes taking shape — and to join us in celebrating those who help keep our beloved library a safe, welcoming place for all.

Kalahngan en komwi!
