On June 7, Kagman Elementary School My WAVE Club students, parents, and club advisers came together to beautify the Forbidden Island Lookout Area. This completed the last of the club’s many projects throughout the school year. Forbidden Island was one of the club’s biggest projects as students were up as early as 6am to spruce up the area.

The group managed to pick up more than 10 trash bags full of garbage from the surrounding areas. According to some students, most of the trash were aluminum cans, plastic bags, empty juice boxes, and bottles. Overgrown brushes and vines were also cleared to brighten up the lookout deck. However, one of their proudest accomplishments was successfully replacing the dilapidated tins on the Forbidden Island Sign and freshly repainting the area.
Amy Amirez, KagES My WAVE Club adviser who spearheaded this project, was pleased to see that the students and parents were enthusiastically working together to beautify one of Saipan’s main attractions. It was one of the main reasons why the group was prompted to adopt this area. According to Amirez, many of the tourists get lost on the way to the area because there really isn’t any clear signs to show them the way.
Others involved in the Forbidden Island Lookout beautification project are KagES My WAVE advisers Dorothy Santos, Grace Figueroa and vice principal Peter Arriola, along with parent volunteers Fabian Muña, Ladi Muña, Jun Muña, Toby Muña, Novelyn Tenorio, Manny Tenorio, Chris Rapugpai, Melvina Litulumar, Steven Vanwinkle and My WAVE Club members Armani Adkins, Mandy Tenorio, Devin Kapileo, Maronica Manibusan, Jude Litulumar, Herman Sablan, John Pangelinan, Jonathan Torres, Riley James Estella, and Nicholas Berdon.
The Kagman Elementary School My WAVE Club would like to thank everyone for their assistance and support and reminds everyone to keep our islands beautiful and to Welcome All Visitors Enthusiastically (WAVE)! (KagES)
