2023 "Uncle Bo" Scholarship Fund

The Lawrence "Uncle Bo" Campos Scholarship Fund

Uncle Bo loved getting everyone involved in outrigger canoe racing and always put Hawaii's kids first. Perpetuating the sport of outrigger canoe paddling was the heart of this wonderfully dedicated man. He knew that by keeping kids on the water, they too would learn the culture and pass it along to the next generation. This scholarship carries his legacy forward.
