The 11th annual pre-season Kala'iomalulani Canoe Race will be another pre-season teaser. The 2009 race was a success and we're predicting the same in 2010. The Long Course will start in Kailua and finish at He'eia Kea Pier. The Short Course will start at He'eia Kea Pier, will continue toward Kualoa and back into Kahalu'u Pier (weather permitting for both courses). The short course will be for the womens, juniors and mixed crews. Don't forget the "'Ono" food Keahiakahoe is know for. We would like to extend an open invitation to all canoe clubs who may be interested in taking part in this highly competitive race.

We will invite all clubs to bring down the juniors in their clubs to join in the Keiki Race to be held at the Keahiakahoe Canoe Club race site. Registration is a small $30 per crew and also includes awards and lunch.

*This is a pre-season OHCRA sanctioned race

Parking in Kahalu'u will be up Waihe'e Road. There will be Trailer Parking ONLY at the Kahalu'u Halau Site. Signs will be posted.

The 5th annual pre-season Kahiau Canoe Race will be pre-season teaser. The 2009 race was a success with a record 65 crews participating and we're predicting the same in 2010. Our goal is to have at least 75 crews. The Long Course will start in Ke'ehi Lagoon, turn on the Honolulu Harbor buoy and finish back into Ke'ehi Lagoon. The Short Course will start in Ke'ehi Lagoon, will continue to a buoy placed outside of Sand Island and back into Ke'ehi Lagoon (weather permitting for both courses). The short course will be for both the womens and mixed crews. Don't forget the "'Ono" food Keahiakahoe is know for. Let’s hope for some bumps and challenging conditions.

Keahiakahoe Canoe Club is proud to announce their Annual Kalua Turkey Fundraiser to be held on Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Tired of plain baked or deep fried turkey? Take the guess work out of testing your turkey for the optimal temperature, and let us do the work with a refreshing twist on the Thanksgiving feast. Kalua Turkey is a delectable treat when cooked in a traditional “imu.” This is quickly becoming a time honored tradition and space is limited.

This years Kalua Turkey Fundraiser will start on Wednesday November 25, 2009 with turkey drop-off between 4:00 – 5:30pm at Kahalu’u Beach Park (our practice site) located across from Kahalu’u District Park. All turkeys must be thawed, seasoned and wrapped in aluminum foil at least three times to keep the juices in and the turkey moist. (No foil pans please!) The turkeys will then be roasted in the imu over night. Turkey pick-up will be the following morning on Thursday November 26, 2009 from 9:00 – 11:00am at Kahalu’u Beach Park once again. Please bring a foil pan for pick-up as the turkeys will still be HOT.

And we don’t discriminate on the size of the turkey either. 5lbs or 15lbs, what ever suits your family, all are welcome. Purchase of your pre-sale ticket doesn’t limit you to only turkeys. In past years, we’ve roasted Pork, Laulaus, and Palusami. What ever your heart desires and imagination can think up. Tickets are $15 per turkey / dish and proceeds will go toward refurbishing our aging koa canoe “Keolahouomaeha’apiti.” As an added special, you can also purchase two tickets for $25. We are delighted to provide this type of service and welcome all participants to “our Kahalu’u.”

For more information and tickets contact:

Come join us in our fundraising effort and let's make waves!
