Although the shore break was a little pounding on Saturday, Jan. 9th, 2010, it didn’t stop the passion of over 300 women paddling for Breast Cancer at the Four Seasons Beach on Maui. Suzie Cooney the brain child of “Stand Up for Women’s Health and Fitness” and her partner Tom Callan, created an event like no other on Maui that included guest speakers, SUP (Stand Up Paddleboarding) lessons, gear, hula classes, raffle, group paddle and more. The free event was to promote breast cancer awareness along with the importance of staying fit and healthy. Thanks to Suzie and Tom for doing such an amazing job and putting on a top notch and organized event on Maui.
