"Our Coaching Staff"

"Happiness Is..."

...seeing so many friends turn out to help carry and trailer our canoes to the paddling site, in preparation for the start of paddling practice which begins on Tuesday, March 27th.

To the eighteen paddlers who turned out to help, Udabest! Mahalo, we couldn't have done it without you.

When practice begins, we will have 78 seats available for new and returning paddlers at each practice session! We have been truly blessed to have so many tip top canoes to practice and race in all year long.

Let's share our blessing and fill each and every seat this year by extending an invite to family members and friends to join us on the water this year.

GOD Bless

Aloha!

Since our canoe club's website www.newhopecanoeclub.org is under construction, we've created this blog to fill the void for the time being as the 2007 paddling season is fast approaching. There is already news to share with you (returning and new paddlers).

Maintaining a website takes a lot of time and energy. Hopefully, this blog will bring information to you a little faster, and we'll do our best to keep it about our love for Jesus Christ, and the gems He gives to us which is the Pacific Ocean, and Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe Paddling.

Well, we're off to find a broom to tidy up the reactivated NHCCM Cyber Kanu (formerly "Web" now "Blog") Crew HQ (circa 2004), and start compiling some 411 to you A.S.A.P.

Welcome to our 5th Year Anniversary of NHCCM paddling fellowship and fun.

Paddles Up!

Your 2007 NHCCM Cyber Kanu (now "Blog") Crew
