The goal of interpretation is to help visitors extract understanding and appreciation from their Visitor Center and Keālia Pond NWR experience.

- operate the Visitor Center
- greet visitors
- interpret exhibits
- explain the Refuge purpose, history, management and information on wildlife
- inform visitors of other Refuge interpretive and educational opportunities
- operate the Friends of Keālia NWR Pond Nature Store
We are looking for an individual who can commit to at least one 3-hr shift per week. Individual must enjoy working with diverse audiences. No previous interpretation skills required.
