Hi Everyone,
This is Coach Kimo...hope your week is going fantastic!
Yesterday, Monday, I married my brother and new bride, Sean & Andrea McDaniel. Small and intimate ceremony at Makapuu Beach.
Sunday, 10\11, I was at Waikiki Beach to greet all our men's crews from Molokai. Everyone arrived safely - including Coach Aka Hemmings' crew of adaptive paddlers. Praise the Lord!
And Saturday, 10\10, we had our last Rec 'Beach-on-the-Brunch' celebration for this 2009 season. For those that showed up - thank you for the "ono" food. We had lots of variety. JoAnn's shrimp-ka-bobs and Coach Ken's steaks were "killer". And thanks to everyone who stuck around to clean-up and cart all the equipment back to Coach Kimo's house.
Finally, Rec will be on the beach this Saturday, 10\17, for the last time this year...that's right, you read correctly. After this Saturday, we will be stopping Rec for the season because the competitive crews are dismantling most of our canoes for storage and repair.
It's been a hard season for everyone, especially following the damage of two canoes which has cost considerable money and heart ache for a lot of paddlers. I think everyone wants to rest for a while, catch their breath and regroup for the season next year.
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest." Matt. 11:28
Lastly, thanks always to Ulu and Lita for helping us stay connected and communicating.
See you on da' beach,
God bless you!
