About this race
What is a Dragon Boat Festival?
This is an event where the community can come together to honor and celebrate those impacted by cancer in the Quad City Community or companies and organizations can use it as a team building opportunity.
Dragon Boating is easy to learn, extremely safe, and an activity where men and women compete side-by-side towards the same goal. Add the outdoors, the water, the visual spectacle of dragon boating and you get a perfect activity for friends and family, corporate team building, or a school outing.
Funds raised at this event stay locally to support the NO COST programs and services provided by Gilda’s Club Quad Cities.
