Prestigious Award presented to Susie Nemeth
Congratulations to our very own Susie Nemeth, 2008 recipient of the A.E. Toots Minvielle Memorial Paddle Award. Cheance Adair, Race Committee Chair presented Susie with this beautiful koa wood paddle at the 2008 Catalina Channel Crossing US Championships outrigger canoe race.
The late Toots was the father of the Moloka'i race and brought Hawai'ian canoe racing to California in 1959. Toots also founded the International Hawai'ian Canoe Racing Association (IHCRA), an organization that brought nations of paddlers together.
The paddle was originally given to him when he was inducted into the Hawai'ian Sports Hall of Fame http://hawaiisportshalloffame.com/xminv.htm. It was later given to IHCRA who presented the paddle to the Southern California paddling community in the early ‘90s. A symbol of dedication and hard work, the A.E. Toots Minivielle Memorial Paddle Award recognizes and celebrates members of the paddling community who strive for the continued growth and development of the sport.

Announcing a new outrigger canoe club aboard Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Oceanside, California
Congratulations Susie Nemeth...you've been published in the October 2007 issue of Pacific Paddler magazine. Mahalo to Paul and Karen Goebel for the fabulous photos
too.

Wow….what an absolutely fabulous weekend. I can’t remember when I had this much
fun.
A special Mahalo to Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Semper Fit and the Single Marine
Program for the opportunity they afforded us. This was a remarkable experience and we enjoyed being there and working with all of you (Danielle West, Sergeant Major Wayne Bell, Eddie
Hadley and our own John Preston).
In attendance were Single Marines from the Marine Corps Logistics Base in Barstow, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, Marine Corps Recruit Depot, San Diego and the Marine Corps Air Station in Yuma,
AZ. Thank you to all of you for a great time and for allowing us to share this sport we love, paddling outrigger canoes. Looks like a few people enjoyed themselves enough to practice with
us in the near future. We look forward to paddling with you soon.

Kupa'a Mau Outrigger Canoe Club has found a home for our canoes and our paddlers at Del Mar Beach, Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton.
Del Mar Beach is located at the southern end of Camp Pendleton and offers miles of magnificent surf. One of North County San Diego's best kept secrets, Del Mar Beach is one of Southern California's most exclusive surf breaks. A breakwater pushes almost a mile into the Pacific, and rolls in with authority. The beach features a boat basin, restrooms/showers, barbecue pits and is clean, quiet and relaxing.
Del Mar Beach is open to the military, their dependents, retirees, and their guests. Access to the base is available for Kupa'a Mau OCC paddlers through the front gate of Camp Pendleton (there are several other gates for entry into Camp Pendleton, but you can only get a temporary pass at the main gate). For complete directions and a map, please see the attachment below. Suggestions of what to bring to practice can be found on the Training section of our website at http://kmocc.org/training.htm. For questions, please contact John Preston at john.d.preston@worldnet.att.net.
