Abreast Up The Creek |
We are a team of breast cancer survivors paddling to demonstrate that we and other breast cancer survivors can lead full and active lives. The first dragon boat of breast cancer survivors was formed in Vancouver in 1996. This number has now grown to more than 125 such crews paddling worldwide.

Dragon Ladies |
The Dragon Ladies, a competitive women's team, are recruiting. Previous dragon boat experience unnecessary. However, we're looking for athleticism, willingness to work hard, and a desire to party harder (but not the night before a race, right coach?!). Seriously, if you're looking for a great team with fantastic camaraderie, you've found it. Practices begin mid-February. Contact Audrey at dragonladies20@hotmail.com and check us out at www.dragonladies20.com. |
