As Rotarians we believe part of our service is to the broader international community. As part of our international service Rotary Club of Poipu Beach helped to build a pre-school in Pursat Province, Cambodia. We provide ongoing support for the teacher, school supplies, and a meal program. Pictured above is International Service Director Dr. Craig Nishimoto visiting the school along with his wife, Annette.
Rotary Clubs across Kauai installed and continue to maintain the yellow beach rescue tubes on our beaches. To date we know of over 140 people being rescued with these devices and there may be more. Please watch this video produced by the Kauai Lifeguard Association on how to use the tubes. It's wise to be prepared!
