The Meaning of our Logo PDF Print E-mail

Our logo was created by  JoAnne Javier. There is a lot of meaning within this logo, and every part of Kamaha'o is reflected in the logo.

Kamaha'o has a motto to go along with our logo: "The heart is the strongest muscle."


The shell is Ka'ahupahau's mouth and teeth which protect Pu'uloa and our club - our 'Aumakua' The paddle shaft with teeth is our commitment to stand with Ka'ahupahau in protecting Pu'uloa and living things Diamond Head is our friend and guides us across the beautiful waters and reminds us of our beginnings The sun rises over Diamond Head during the Makahiki and reminds us of peace and life-giving things The waves represent the waters of Kamaha'o that give us our strength and abiding wisdom The paddle blade brings Kamaha'o its connection with the ocean, which teaches us humility Kamaha'o means and is doing wonderful things.
