The event is scheduled for March 31 at 7 a.m. at Prince Kuhio’s. Divisions contested include short board, long board and body board, and will be open to participants of all ages.
The contest will be free to all entrants, and will include a barbeque and a band to follow. Trophies will be awarded Sunday afternoon at Vidinha Stadium during the Freedom Fest Kaua’i Celebration. Kapena will be the featured act at the gathering.
