Builder Petty Officer 2nd Class Neil Kenefick, from the Junior Sailors Association (JSA) of Pearl Harbor Naval Shipyard and Intermediate Maintenance Facility (PHNSY & IMF) was one of several volunteers at the Aiea Public Library, July 27, 2022.
The event was part of the association’s goal to reach out to neighboring communities and make a positive impact on local youth, according to HT2 Thomas Kozlowski, president of the JSA.
During the visit, the Sailors read several children's books and held interactive learning activities. Several PHNSY & IMF challenge coins along with miniature American flags were given to the children, whose ages ranged from 2 to 8 years old.
“After we read to the kids, we answered questions about our Navy careers, the different types of uniforms we wear and what it was like living on a boat,” Kozlowski said. “Overall, the Sailors, librarians and library staff agreed that it was a successful event.”
