In our own words: (why our members are here)
Trish - paddling for 2+ years
When I came the first time to dragon boat, I knew basically no one in town. The first day I met so many people who have now become good friends. Getting out on the water, getting exercise, and meeting new people kept me coming. At first I felt like I was the worst person in the boat, and almost quit. Because of the encouragement of several people I continued and became a strong, confident paddler.
Bill - paddling for 4 months
I associate dragon boating with cancer survivors, a cause I am personally and unfortunately familiar with. It's been a good experience to participate as a newbie, and I am enjoying the outdoors so much more now. The group is very accepting and patient with newcomers. Looking forward to growing with this club.

Community, being in (water) nature, and exercise. Friendly people, organized structure. Additionally, this experience helps us enjoy + feel invested in our proximity to the Puget Sound.
Lori - paddling for 2+ years
The people are amazing! It is wonderful exercise. Every time on the water is different.
