Upcoming Rams mini-camp hopes to give Hawaii tourism much-needed summer boost
HONOLULU (KHON2) — Many are excited and ready for the NFL's Los Angeles Rams to host their summer mini-camp in Wailuku next week. Officials hope this showcases how these partnerships can give a much-needed boost to our tourism industry. The Yaroshuk family hasn't been to Hawaii in 18 years. So they're soaking up every minute they can. The Los Angeles Rams are heading to Maui next summer 'Just a nice getaway,' said Lina Yaroshuk, a visitor from Toronto. 'Just 10 days away from the usual you know, people wanna go somewhere on holidays where they can just relax, do some hiking, you know visit some areas you haven't seen in a while.' They're not the only ones returning to the islands this summer. The Los Angeles Rams are ready for their Maui mini-camp next week. 'Let's not kid ourselves, we're not getting anything football wise done, but it'll be a cool trip to be able to connect, so we'll enjoy it and look forward to it next week,' said Sean Mcvay, Los Angeles Rams head coach.'Every time we have something big come to the state, whether it's a training camp for a football or a concert, revenue generally rises because many people from around the country fly over,' said Rep. Adrian Tam, House Tourism Committee chair. The timing couldn't be better. Even though the state says visitors numbers are up so far this year compared to last year, they're expecting a modest slowdown during summer. According to a statement from Department of Business, Economic Development and Tourism Director James Tokioka, caused by political and economic uncertainties both nationally and internationally. 'I don't understand, Just have a look around, everybody could enjoy yourself for sure,' Yaroshuk said.

'Beaches and our natural environment is a huge factor, 100-percent, it's our branding,' Tam said. 'But we have to give them more than just our beaches and our natural environment. We have to think outside the box and we have to look into concerts, sporting events, and conferences.' So people like the Yaroshuks won't wait another 18 years to come back. 'You know what I've got a few more days, I'm looking forward to renting a car and going further up north, just exploring more of what the island has to offer,' Yaroshuk said. 'But so far, no disappointments, I'll be back.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

Hawaii-born 2026 QB Eugenio commits to ‘Bows football
With just 11 weeks remaining until the start of the 2025 University of Hawai'i football season, the 2026 recruiting class is beginning to take shape. Leading the early wave of commits is Hawai'i-born quarterback Maika Eugenio, who announced his pledge to the Rainbow Warriors over the weekend following an official visit to Mānoa. Eugenio, a standout at national prep powerhouse Bishop Gorman High School in Las Vegas, is part of a growing pipeline from Gorman to UH. Among those paving the way is former Gorman quarterbacks coach Chad Kapanui, a Roosevelt graduate and former Warrior who now serves on Hawai'i's staff. 'For me, it feels great to be going back home with my family,' Eugenio said. 'I used to live in Hawai'i for about 12 years, and I went to Kamehameha since kindergarten. Just being able to come back, maybe go to college with some of my friends, and play in front of my family, it's a great opportunity and I'm excited.' Eugenio, said the relationships he's built with key members of the UH program, particularly Kapanui and assistant coach Chris Brown, played a pivotal role in his decision. 'Both Coach Kapanui and Coach Brown were key, key roles in my decision,' Eugenio said. 'The relationship I built with Coach Kapanui at Gorman was big, and being able to go back home and continue that relationship was definitely strong. My dad actually used to coach him when he was at Roosevelt, my dad (Matt) was the defensive coordinator at the time. So it's just kind of great that he's coaching me now. It's crazy.' Eugenio added that the presence of fellow Bishop Gorman alumni on the current UH roster helped solidify his choice. 'Coach Brown and all the other Gorman players played a big part too,' he said. 'Just being able to be back with them and further my relationship with them is definitely big.' Eugenio wasn't the only commitment UH landed over the weekend. Gorman teammate Isaiah Nickels, a versatile two-way skill player, and Saint Louis defensive back Jahren Altura also announced their commitments to the Rainbow Warriors. The trio gives head coach Timmy Chang and his staff an early boost as they look to build momentum heading into the 2025 season. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
