PADDLE WITH A PURPOSE

Aloha and mahalo nui loa for visiting our website. Our San Diego based outrigger canoe club (hui) is moving full speed ahead with positive energy and enthusiasm towards wonderful causes and equally wonderful canoe time! If you are interested in supporting us and our efforts, we'd love to share our sport, our story, and most importantly, our aloha with you!

Our Makua (Adults) at Crystal Pier Race

May 2012 - What a great month! We completed our first keiki regatta (Keiki Heihei Waʻa) and first SCORA race of the season (Crystal Pier)! All the paddlers gave everything they had out on the water and represented so wonderfully. The race season is just getting started as we will now be heading to Santa Barbara, Marina Del Rey, Ventura, Avila and back to San Diego in the next two months for our Iron (long distance season)!

February 2012 - We are excited to start the 2012 OC6 paddling season for men, women, co-ed and keiki (children)! After getting our two canoes prepped and painted, it is time to enjoy them on the water. Thank you to all the great clubs, companies, groups and individuals who have helped support us. Now its time to paddle! IMUA!.

January 2012 - GREAT NEWS! We are very humbled, grateful, and excited to be accepted as part of the SCORA ohana. We look forward to paddling alongside all the great clubs! Please visit their website at www.SoCalOutrigger.org to see 2012 events, races, photos and more!

November 2011 - Be sure to get the scoop on the Menehune Surf contest and Aloha Jam. The details are on RellSunn.com. Two awesome events!

Paddle 4 A Cure

October 2011 - Thanks to everyone who came out for the Annual Mission Bay Paddle for a Cure. We had paddlers racing for a great cause! Afterwards, everyone paddled around the bay and hung out for a beautiful sunny day with ono grindz. View an amazing slideshow of the day, courtesy of the talented Edmund Gaila!

September 2011 - Our first two canoes! Be introduced to these beautiful wa'a...

August 2011 - We were written about in the La Jolla Light San Diego newspaper!
