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.
There are two Experience Dragon Boat Racing Program options available: Train & Race Package and Race Ready Package.Train & Race PackageProgram DetailsThe Experience Dragon Boat Train & Race package is a five-week program leading up to a dragon boat festival. One 1-hr practice is held per week, making it the perfect opportunity to try out the sport without having to commit too much of your time. We supply you with all the equipment needed (i.e. boats, paddles, and lifejackets) – all you have to do is show up in clothes that can get wet!Along with the five-week program, you'll also get the chance to compete in one of our events with the rest of the people in the program.
