Now that Nationals are done and all of our members are finally home with their whānau, we just want to take a moment to say a huge thank you 💙❤️
To our amazing sponsors, we are truly grateful for your support. You help make everything we do possible.
To our Tu Meke whānau, thank you for the commitment, the sacrifices, and the love you bring every single day. From our paddlers to our supporters behind the scenes, it never goes unnoticed.
This year was a big one for us. Welcoming our new crew Tu Meke Toa and bringing in new paddlers was something really special. Watching everyone come together, build connections, and grow as one has been something we’re incredibly proud of.
It wasn’t always easy, we faced challenges, pushed through tough moments, and stood by each other the whole way. Through it all, we’ve built resilience, trust, and unity.
Nationals has given us more than just results, it’s given us new goals to chase, new lessons to carry forward, and memories that will stay with us forever.
We are proud of every single one of you. Not just for what you achieved on the water, but for how you showed up for each other.
Rest up, recover, and enjoy this time with your loved ones. We take what we’ve learned and come back even stronger.
