The Boys & Girls Club of Hawaii ODKF Ocean Sports & Fitness Day perpetuates the legacy and spirit of Duke Kahanamoku. In its 20th year, the event engages 125 BGCH keiki ages 9 – 17 in a variety of “Duke’s Sports,” while also teaching youth about water safety in a controlled environment. A grant from the ODKF will be used to purchase long sleeve lycra rash guards and will support bus and ground transportation to the event, fees for lifeguards, BGCH personnel costs, equipment rentals and supply fees, and breakfast for event volunteers, staff, and BGCH members.
