And we're off! We were delayed last week by the storms, but the men and women finally started regatta practice yesterday. A little bit of rain wasn't about to stop anybody!
Men and Women will be practicing Monday / Wednesday / Friday at 5:30 pm. Kruser will be coaching the men's teams again, and Uncle Sam the women.
David and Adam will also be starting soon with the youth teams; we'll post as soon as we have definite details.
And we'll still go out Sunday for a recreation paddle, 9:30 am at the halau.
Feel free to email us if you have any questions!

About Kamehameha
The Order of Kamehameha, a civic club, established the Kamehameha Canoe Club in the early 1960s. In 1973 Kamehameha, along with other clubs, separated from HRCA to form Na `Ohana `O Na Hui Wa`a.
From the beginning Kamehameha has been a family-oriented club which maintains a strong focus on Hawaiian culture and its values.
In 1979 the Kamehameha Women raced in the first Na Wahine O Ke Kai race from Moloka`i to O`ahu.
Our koa canoe, Kahaleloa, is named after our first president, Adam Kahaleloaokaukanaokamehameha Ahai. The canoe was built in Kona, one of two boats carved from a single log taken at Haleakalā.
Kahaleloa is currently in storage for the winter. Our plan is to bring the wa`a back out for next summer's regatta season!
