WE'RE PADDLING AND STRUMMING TODAY!!

Aloha, Gang -

It should beautiful at the beach today. They're predicting sunny skies and 73 degrees. It might be the best beach day so far this year. We hope you'll join us.

Want to know more about us? Just keep reading.

Membership in Hana Hou and attendance at our weekly beach meetup sessions is absolutely FREE. No dues or fees of any kind are required for anyone who does not wish to paddle.

If you do wish to paddle, the paddling fee is only $10 per month. It's an absolute bargain. Your paddling fee includes one paddling session each week (four paddling sessions per month) in clean, safe outrigger canoes - plus paddling tips and instruction. We strive to make it fun and safe for everyone. The paddling fee also includes use of a paddle (if you don't own one) and on-board canoe safety equipment.

Paddling is not mandatory for membership in Hana Hou. If you prefer, just come for the fun, friendship, and Hawaiian music. Here, we don't judge you by the size of your biceps or the extent of your paddling experience. To us, the best club members are the ones having the most fun.

Come as often or as infrequently as you wish. We don’t take attendance. You’ll always be welcomed even if you can only make it every once in a while. Don’t feel as though you are locked-in to weekly attendance. We all have busy schedules and we understand if you can only be an “every now and again” member.

There are no cliques or “insiders” in Hana Hou - everyone is ohana (family) beginning with your first visit. We’re here strictly for fun and never, ever to add stress or obligation to anyone’s life. Guests are ALWAYS welcomed! No advance registration or notice is necessary. Just show up and bring along as many of your family members, friends, out-of-town guests, or anybody else as you wish. We’re a warm and friendly group - your guests will have a great time!

Oh, and don't be spooked if you see that only a small number of people have RSVP'ed. That happens every week. There are always a whole lot more folks attending each week than there are RSVP's. RSVP'ing helps us out a lot but it isn't absolutely necessary. If you haven't RSVP'ed but still think you'd like to attend - just show-up anyway.

IMPORTANT NOTE: PLEASE! PLEASE!! PLEASE!!! Always check this site on Sunday mornings prior to making the trip to the beach. Weather and other factors can sometimes force a cancellation. We will hold a Hana Hou meetup every week unless something unavoidable happens to make it impossible.
