Experience Dragon Boat Racing with GWN Dragon Boat
So you want to try dragon boat racing this spring, but are unsure where to begin. Rounding up twenty friends and co-workers can be like herding cats—er, dragons. That’s exactly why we created a recreational program within Toronto, to help get you on the water this spring.
The Experience Dragon Boat Racing program lasts five weeks starting the week of May 11th or 18th, with one practice per week and finishing up at the 32nd Annual Living Realty Toronto International Dragon Boat Race Festival on June 20th & 21st. This is a perfect opportunity to try the sport. We supply you with all the equipment needed - paddles and lifejackets – all you have to do is show up in clothes that can get wet!
