A little trivia on the race….

A Race Named For A Queen

50 years ago Kai Opua Canoe Club organizers began formulating and planning for a long-distance canoe race.

The first weekend in September 1972 was the Labor Day holiday but more importantly, it was the birthday of Hawaii’s last reigning monarch Queen Lili'uokalani.

The first Queen Lili'uokalani Canoe Race took place on September 2, 1972 honoring and in celebration of Hawaii’s beloved Queen. Read the whole story in the 2023 Queen's Race magazine. Find race magazines in town starting on Monday.
