Drummondville Provincial Dragon Boat Gathering
Parc Ste-Thérèse
(Exit 177 off Autoroute 20)
746, boul. Mercure
The Parc Ste-Thérèse in Drummondville is once again the headquarters for the 9th edition of this annual boat gathering. The races will be held on the St-François river, alongside this charming municipal park. Each boat seats 22 people: 20 paddlers, 1 drummer and 1 cox. Nautical sport by excellence to reinforce the team spirit, the name of this sport comes from an outrigger canoe also called dragon boat.
During the weekend, Saturday will be reserved for the competitive category as participants from all over Québec compete to be the fastest to cross the finish line. On Sunday, it's a family day, for incription: http://3rdragon.ca/rendez-vous-des-bateaux-dragons-de-drummondville-volet-corporatif/
