Arizona Keiki paddlers working toward ShakaFest

What a great practice on Sunday with our keiki outrigger paddlers! A big welcome to our newest 14 and under paddlers, Jordan, Jerome and Zoie, and their parents. Everyone with our 14 and under and 19 and under crews, shared lots of time on the water with our coaches, including guest men’s coach, Rich Gorrill, and lots of learning from our Ohana. We have only three practices until our first race at ShakaFest – Apr. 25. Remember that Kaimi will be directing hula presentations for all who would like to participate.

Coming up this weekend is Saturday practice for adults at 8 a.m., followed by a club equipment day. Come help with our club spring cleaning.  Keep up with all our events and practices on Facebook.
