by Jean Raas on 05/01/13
We are so proud of our Kai Aniani family and wanted to congratulate them on taking 1st and 2nd place last weekend at the Ft. Myers, Ultimate Water Games (UWG). It was a great turn out with 8 teams traveling from California and all over the state of Florida.
A16 mile OC-6 race coarse was set up with a four leg, 4 mile format featuring a beach start for each competition leg. One paddler stood in the water with the canoe while the other five paddlers ran from the beach and jumped into the canoe.
Thanks you UWG!!!!
