The Friends of the D.T. Fleming Arboretum at Pu'u Mahoe hosted a two-night camping trip for volunteers Boy Scout Troop 14 of Kula from Aug. 10 to 12.

The Boy Scouts completed a service project to construct a 300-foot trail to expand native reforestation within Pu'u Mahoe's cinder cone.

Educational presentations were held throughout the weekend, including evening star watching with astronomy instructor Harriet Witt and a geology presentation by David Grooms, professor and assistant dean of instruction at the University of Hawaii Maui College.
