Registering a Dragon Boat Team
Thank you for your interest in entering a team in the inaugural Palatka Dragon Boat Festival! There are so many reasons to enter a team - fundraising, team building, camaraderie, and good 'ole fun!
All of the necessary equipment will be supplied to your team during practice and the races, including a boat, life vests, paddles and a steersperson/coach. Your team must supply the people to paddle and the drummer (the drummer doesn't need to have any drumming experience, typically lighter in weight, with a loud, encouraging voice !).
Your team's registration includes 1 practice session, which will be scheduled in the week leading up to the event. You will also receive a space in the park where your team can set up a tent, camp chairs, coolers, etc to use as a rest area during the event.
