NĀ WĀHINE O KE KAI

Sun., Sept. 21, 8 a.m. Teams of all-female eanoe paddlers put their spirit and stamina to the test in this 41-mile race fromMoloka'i to O'ahu that ends in the waiting arms of Waiklkl Beach some five-and-a-half hours later, depending on conditions. Team Bradley has won eight of the last 10 races, including six consecutive wins starting in 2005. The 2014 race expands the field to include a 16- to 18-year-old junior division and a 55-and-over golden master women division. OHA is a proud supporter of this cultural event that attracts more ihan 1,000 paddlers,

70 percent of whom are Native Hawaiian. Check loeal listings for the delayed broadcast on OC16. nawahineokekai . eom.
