Outrigger Caloundra and Poly Va’a had a fabulous morning on 25 March 2017! We shared food, surfed waves, danced along to the sounds of the ukulele and blessed our OC1s. Big thank you to Pili Muaulu for sharing your knowledge, laughter and spirit with us! We hope to see more days like this in the future!
“One of the few clubs where people of all ages train together harmoniously” – Warren
” People are friendly and helpful. Great atmosphere & mix of teams instead of just women or men sessions. Also flexible training times to suit those with work commitments” – Heeni
“I only joined the club in November and I always feel very welcome . Every training session I feel part of a team. Thanks everyone” – Kathy
“Great to paddle with a cross section of ages and professions. A friendly welcoming environment where everyone chips in to do their bit. Love the changing sea we get to experience on our paddles” – Marcia
“Love the Caloundra Outriggers….great training sessions, lots of encouragement and fun to hang out with!” – Di
“Competitive club with room for laughter and the occasional drinks at the local Drift with a perfect view to our beloved playground. No other sport or club can match what Outrigger Caloundra Canoe Club offers. As a member of OCCC you are truly a part of a big loving Family. And a fast growing one may I add. I meet Brothers and sisters everywhere now” – Morten
“It is such a pleasure to be part of OCCC everyone is so friendly and a joy to be around. We also get to experience what mother nature dishes up, be it a perfect Sunday morning paddle to Moffat Beach or a gusty blowing south eastly, its all good fun” – Steve
We asked our sister club what they have been up to since the World Sprints in May 2016 and what they have planned for 2017…..
A message from from Tito Paoa!
“Hi Outrigger Caloundra, we just return from the SurAmericano championship and Rapa Nui got all the gold. For the first time since 2011 the Rapa Nui women’s team got together as one and beat the Brazilians. The Rapa Nui Va’a club, started yesterday with summer Va’a program. Just when everything was going right I arrived on the beach on a V6 with my kids after an hour session, to find a bunch of paddlers with a birthday cake and singing happy birthday. It was wonderful… Anyway, next year we have the world marathon in Tahiti, an invitation to go to Catalina crossing in California in September, and an invitation to hawaikinui starting in huahine and ending in Bora Bora. Also hopping that any of the sister club members, visit us and paddle with us. Big hug to all. And once again, thanks for your hospitality”
