The Cooper Center Facility is a County of Hawai’i owned property whose facility is managed by Cooper Center Council according to the Memorandum of Understanding between both the Cooper Center Council and the County of Hawaii.  The facility may not be used for activities that are religious or political in nature, particularly when such use involves public resources, private political interests, or positions of influence.

 

CCC is a membership-driven organization, and all members are expected to fulfill their monthly member volunteer requirements.

 

Our facility is known as “The Heart of Volcano”, the central hub of the Volcano Community, and is used by hundreds of people weekly. The use of the facility prioritizes authorized approvals to Cooper Center Council applicants who display their understanding and respect towards the value of the facility and its surrounding community.

 

Active members may apply to use the Cooper Center Facility, subject to availability and precedence prioritizing community safety, government-sponsored events, and CCC-approved events. 

​

At this time, all interested individuals and groups wanting to become an Active CCC Member may apply in-person to become a member at our Annual Membership Meeting held annually in March.  Meeting information to be announced by December 31st.

​

The CCC Membership Policies & Procedures Form is currently under review for approval and is expected to be released by our next March 2026 Annual Membership Meeting.

 

The smooth functioning of Cooper Center is a cooperative process.​
