Community Involvement
The true spirit of Hawaii is “Aloha” – helping one another.
At Red Sail Sports, we believe it’s important to play an active roll
in the community and to share the Aloha Spirit. We stay actively involved with
our hotel partners and with the Hawaii Visitors Bureau by participating in
conservation efforts and sponsoring dive and various local events.
Make-A-Wish- Foundation
Recently, Red Sails Sports hosted several groups from the "Make a Wish
Foundation". They enjoyed sailing aboard our 'Noa Noa' catamaran. "We
consider it a privilege to grant special requests for the children and their
families," explains Diane Rice from Red Sail Sports Hawaii.
Kohala Coast Community Events
Additionally, we're proud to have participated in a series of Hawaii community events that were sponsored by the resorts along the Big Island's Kohala Coast.
Working together to help one another, we all really got behind these worthwhile fundraisers during 2002:
Hilton Waikoloa Village had great food and fun at a sold-out event –– the Headdress Ball. All proceeds went to the Big Island Food Bank.
The Orchid at Mauna Lani sponsored the Island’s United Way fundraiser on August 17, 2002; all the hotels along the coast participated.
On September 6, the Four Seasons at Hualalai hosted the Terry Fox Fundraiser for cancer research. Guests enjoyed wonderful food, wine, a golf tournament, plus a silent auction featuring room and airfare packages at Four Seasons resorts worldwide.
On September 10, Red Sail Sports hosted 20 Mrs. America Pageant participants on Lagoon Beach at the Hilton Waikoloa Village.
On September 14, Hapuna Beach Prince Hotel threw the Big Island POKE
(PO-KEH) "Hawaii's Soul Food" contest and Golf Tournament. All profits benefitted the Kawaihae Transitional Housing.
And on October 19, we were part of the 20th Ironman Triathlon, an annual Big Island highlight and world-class event. Please join us for the 21st in October, 2003!
