Sheraton 2 Sheraton samoa
Talofa All Paddlers!
Alo Paopao and Sheraton Samoa are proud to present the Sheraton 2 Sheraton La’auli’ Alan Grey Memorial, on Saturday 23rd of March.
The regatta is in memory of the late La’auli Alan Grey and his wonderful legacy of development and support for water sports in Samoa.
The 34 kilometre outrigger race starts from Sheraton Apia at 6am with prizegiving and celebration at Sheraton Mulifanua kicking off at 12.30pm.
All proceeds will benefit developing outrigger canoe paddling and water safety programs in local schools and villages.
Thank you to our generous sponsors Sheraton Samoa, Island Base 87.5 FM, M&J Ah Fook Enterprises and Loaded.
We also want to acknowledge the Grey family for allowing us to share their father’s legacy of giving back to our Samoa people. We are also inviting Sailors and SUP paddlers to join in the fun and support the cause.
All are welcome to come down to support and welcome teams at the finish line at Sheraton Resort in Mulifanua.
