"Ask Uncle Hut"

Uncle,
I saw a young woman paddler wearing a New Hope Canoe Club paddling jersey at today's Kanaka Ikaika (Hawai'i Kai to Kaimana Beach) Race.
She did really good. Who was that?

Dear Phoebe,
We checked it out, and it is none other than our very own Jerika Moniz!
She came in 34 of 77 overall, and first place in her division (Female Jr. 18 & under).
Jerika will be competing against the best OC-1 Na Opio racers from here and Tahiti at Ke'ehi Lagoon on March 1st and 2nd.
Let's join her ohana that weekend and cheer on this terrific young lady!
