On February 27, 2010, as the entire state of Hawai’i was under a tsunami warning, over 40 HCC members and supporters headed down to Kahului Harbor to load 20 canoes and 50 OC-1s and transport them to safety in Wailuku.
Many people were at the hale before the sun came up. Then, once the warning was called off, many people showed up to put the canoes away. They worked until the sun went down.
MAHALO NUI LOA to all who came out to kokua. The spirit of the HCC ‘ohana was evident on Saturday, with so many people just showing up ready to do whatever it took for our precious canoes and equipment to be safe.
