Harrison DragonFest 2008

Water's Edge Sport Performance Inc. and the Fraser Valley Dragon Boat Club are pleased to announce the fourth annual Harrison DragonFest, to take place on July 19th, 2008 in beautiful Harrison Hot Springs, BC.

With registration selling out in 2007 this event has quickly become one of the paramount one-day dragon boat events within the Pacific Northwest.  This year we hope to capture that same spirit and bring you even more exciting races, community-sponsored attractions and festivities - all with the beautiful backdrop of stunning Harrison Lake. This spectacular venue is easily accessible to teams from all over the Pacific Northwest and only a ninety minute drive from downtown Vancouver. The central Fraser Valley location combined with the stunning surroundings makes this a welcome one-day getaway or a weekend retreat.

We hope to see you on the water July 19th 2008.

"Letter From The President"

On behalf of all the members that make up the Fraser Valley Dragon Boat Club (FVDBC), I would like to welcome you to our website. This website will enable us to keep our members and the general public informed about current and upcoming events, to answer questions with regards to dragon boating and to promote this wonderful sport we all love.

The goal of the FVDBC and its newly elected executive is to grow the sport of Dragon Boating in the local community and surrounding areas. We intend to carry on the work of past executives by moving forward with the purchase of new boats, expanding our team base by forming and developing junior, senior and "ladies only" teams and designing and constructing a new clubhouse. We will also continue with our Community Challenge Cup in June, our 4th annual Dragon Boat Regatta in July and our Club Challenge in September. It will be a very busy year.

So, if you or any of your friends are interested in Dragon Boating, please see the Contact Us section and drop us a line. If you can breathe you can dragon boat. Try it today. The sooner you try it, the faster you will be hooked.

Thank You
Scott Farrell
FVDBC President
