Dragon Boat Races
The dragon boat races are an integral part of the Dragon Festival. Our goal for the races is to bring to life the history of dragon boat racing and to encourage everyone to participate in a team sport that originated in China. Each year, approximately 26 boat teams take part in races over the two-day event. The event is building capacity to handle even more. The friendly competition has been a great team-building exercise for many corporate teams!
Dragon Boat races are continuous throughout the 2 days of the Dragon Festival. Below is the schedule for the first day of practice and the second day of racing.
