39th Annual Duke Kahanamoku Classic

"Calling all active and inactive paddlers, ohana, church ohana, and friends..."






"Calling all active and inactive paddlers, ohana, church ohana, and friends..."


Paddling Fans,


  • There is going to be some great paddling action on tap this Sunday in Kailua (commence theme song from "Rocky" movie now), and click on above link for race info.
  • You'll not want to miss the "Le Mans" start for both the wahine and kane races. For us cheerleaders left on the beach, it is just so much fun to caravan from Kailua through Waimanalo, and then down the home stretch on the East Side, stopping along the way to grab a cup of joe from Starbucks (actually, I like the new iced coffee from McDonald's too - hazelnut - yummy), and see our paddling crews jockeying for the finish line amongst the scores of other crews entered in the race.
  • Let us all pray for the safety and welfare of each and every Boat Driver, Deckhand, Boat Helper, and Paddler competing in this weekend's races.
  • A special thank you to Lanikai Canoe Club for always putting together this terrific event every year befitting of the race's namesake.
  • GodSpeed! C'ya on the beach.
Uncle Hut

P.S. Eh' no forget to slather on dat' sunscreen all day, stay covered and under shade when and where ever possible, and remain well hydrated, paddler or spectator.
