Memorial Paddle-Out for Kim Lillywhite
Aloha O’hana. On July 16th, 2023, Pale Kai and the entire paddling community lost a beloved member of our ohana. Pale Kai Outrigger Canoe Club and Kai Wai Northbay Paddling Club will host a Memorial Paddle-Out, Celebration of Life, and Beach BBQ lunch in loving memory of Kim on August 5th, 2023.
Please join us as we gather to celebrate her beautiful life on the water. We will paddle out together for a short distance, have a blessing, and spread Kim's ashes in the sea, a place she truly loved to be.
The paddle-out will be followed by a casual Hawaiian-style lunch right on the beach in Avila. Plan to stay after the paddle-out and lunch as we continue to celebrate her life.
If you plan to attend, please RSVP
