After a year and a half of planning and building, Hawaiian Canoe Club will bless its Traditional Hawaiian Hale on Friday, July 30 at 5pm. Master hale builder Francis Palani Sinenci of Hana guided HCC through the construction of the hale from start to finish. The 50′ x 30′ hale is the first ‘legal’ hale built under the Maui County Code Chapter 15 Indigenous Architecture Building Code.
The public is welcomed to attend.
The hale wa‘a will be the piko, or center, of an intergenerational gathering place to perpetuate, preserve, and celebrate traditional Hawaiian knowledge and practices. It will meet our needs of providing a quality program for our keiki but also the opportunity to expand and improve programs that benefit the entire community. From daily hula practices to elaborate Hawaiian ceremonies and festivals, the hale will be a place for Hawaiians, non-Hawaiians, keiki, makua and kupuna to gather, share, and enjoy Hawaiian culture.

The Traditional Hale was made possible through support from the Cooke Foundation, Group 70 Foundation, A&B Properties, the County of Maui, Otomo Engineering, Engineering Dynamics Corporation, Imua Builders, Allegiance Excavation, the Dorvin D. Leis Company, and Volvo Rentals.

History
Canoes of all types have, for years, been enjoying the downwind run from West Maui to South Moloka’i.
For a time, there was only one race — for 0C-1s and Surfskis but, in 2007, the Pailolo Challenge was inaugurated so that finally, Hawaii’s 6-person outrigger canoe paddlers could enjoy one of Hawaii’s best downwind runs.
One of windiest channels in the Hawaiian islands, the Pailolo Channel takes the trades that funnel between Maui and Moloka’i and transforms them into perfectly spaced bumps that offer rides virtually all the way from the start at D.T. Flemings Beach Park to Kaunakakai Pier, 26 miles away.
The race is open to HRCA approved*fiberglass six-person outrigger canoes AND Open Class Canoes.
Divisions: Men’s open (9), Master 40 (9) , Master 50 (10), Iron (6). Women’s open (10), Master 40 (10), Master 50 (12), Iron (6)
No escort boat required for iron crews however, all iron crews must have a VHF radio on board.
• Maui Brewing Company Pre-Race Meal at Flemings Beach Park Friday, Sept. 17 at 5:30 pm
• Intent to Participate form due Friday, September 10. All other forms due at Registrion on Friday, Sept 17. Download forms at www.pailolo.com
• All women’s crew start at 9:00am. All men’s crews start at 9:15am

Mahalo to all of our Volunteers & Parents
Hawaiian Canoe Club is constructing a Traditional Hawaiian Hale adjacent to the current hale.
The 50’ x 30’ hale is the largest in the State of Hawai‘i. The hale will be the piko, or center, of an intergenerational gathering place to perpetuate, preserve, and celebrate traditional Hawaiian knowledge and practices. It will meet our needs of providing a quality program for our keiki but also the opportunity to expand and improve programs that benefit the entire community. From daily hula practices to elaborate Hawaiian ceremonies and festivals, the hale will be a place for Hawaiians, non-Hawaiians, keiki, makua and kupuna to gather, share, and enjoy Hawaiian culture. Its proximity to the ocean only strengthens the hale potential to become a piko because the ocean holds a infinite amount of resources and inspiration.
The construction of this landmark project would not be possible with out the support of the Cooke Foundation, Group 70 Foundation, Dorvin D. Leis Company, Otomo Engineering, Engineering Dynamics Corporation, Peter & Judy Siracusa, The Bendon Family Foundation, Calrsmith Ball LLP, Dowling Company, Goodfellow Brothers, Hawaii Fueling Network, Jac & Susan Kean, Kent & Polli Smith, Land Tech, Manici Welch & Geiger, Maui Oil Company, Pacific Energy Management, Pete & Debbie Martin, Wailea Realty, Frampton & Ward LLC, and George Rixey.
