Held on Labour Day weekend in beautiful Wascana Park, and drawing 20,000 spectators, this is a unique show of cross-cultural community spirit with 65 teams participating in the races. In 1992 the International Ching Chung Taoist Church presented a Dragon Boat to Regina's Festival. Completely run by volunteers, this festival has developed strong community and corporate support. Dragon Boat Festival's are based on an ancient Chinese legend, dating back over 2,000 years. The boats are filled with 20-22 paddlers, a steer person and a drummer.
Teams race in youth and adult categories, both competitive and recreational.
See you at the Festival. Training sessions are available from May 1st until early August. Regular training sessions begin on approximately August 10th. It's easier to find training times when the whole team can participate. Phone now and book your extra sessions and reserve your favorite coach.
