A huge shout out to the Rapids, who train in our boats and with our safety team and steers! The students are led by Riverside teacher, Erica McArthur, former coach to Nothin’ Dragon. Susan Priestly, a teacher from Gleneagle is the co-coach.
This high school team is made up of students from Riverside Secondary and Gleneagle Secondary students and they did very well at their first junior race at the Spring Sprint dragon boat festival at False Creek, Vancouver in May.
The outcome was a gold medal in the Junior B Division!
Hard work pays off! Junior B Gold!
The team trains at Rocky Point and many of the youth helped us on the dock at our Inlet Spring Regatta.
The Rapids are still training and will compete at the Concord Pacific Dragon Boat Festival in June to wrap up their season.
A hearty congrats from team Nothin’ Dragon!
Steering from Nothin’ Dragon is Linda Corcoran.
Giving back! Students from the Rapids helped on the docks at our Inlet Spring Regatta held in April.
