  • "And you know, it's weird because it used to always stink and everything. You'd say, 'Well, we're by the Ala Wai cause you could tell.' But now, you just don't have the smell anymore," Lokahi Canoe Club racing coordinator Lee Buhre said.

    I remember back then, people would be able to ride along the Ala Wai in little boats up and down in the evenings, don't know how much it costs...it was beautiful. Hopefully that could happen once again?

    Proof is in the pudding--optimism that is delivering. Encouraging--consistent persistence with tangible small change for outcome worth looking forward to (the audacity to be able to safely swim in the Ala Wai Canal will be worth seeing). Indeed, hope to break the status quo!

    As a kid used to scoop net jelly fish in the 70's out of ala wai and look for golf balls to sell at the golf course while swimming in the ala wai to find golf balls. Sold it for a quarter for one or fifty cents if it was a brand name ball in Woolworths. Yep, if you remember that, that kid was me, still today the only kid who sold golf balls at the ALA WAI golf course. Aloha.
