Aloha Hui Paoakalani Paddlers,
The 2019 Paddling Season will begin this weekend, Saturday May 25, 2019 at the Great Salt Lake Marina at 10 AM. We will be rigging and launching Na Wa'a (Outrigger Canoes) and preparing them for the paddling season. This will be our initial paddle of hopefully a very fun and exciting paddling season. Reports from the Great Salt Lake Marina show that the lake has risen from record lows and we anticipate a very good water year will allow us to have a very fruitful paddling season.
With the weather forecasts showing a window for us to launch the outrigger canoes, we felt like we should take the opportunity to rig the canoes and launch at least one canoe and hopefully with your help, launch a second canoe. Our sailing canoe, Kailana Kaleo is still under going maintenance and we do not anticipate launching her until later this summer. We will be at the marina from 10 am till after 2 pm, weather permitting.
Because of the unpredictability of the spring weather, please visit this blog for updates or if you have any questions, please call Ben Au at 801-721-7026.
Mahalo,
Ben Au
