    Extractions: Dragon Boating is an ancient sport, with an intriguing history. It was in the aftermath of the poet Qu Yuan's unfortunate death that the myth and pageantry of dragon boat racing was born. When news of his suicide reached the villagers, they immediately took to their boats, beating drums and their paddles to frighten fish and water dragons away and prevent them from eating the body of their fallen poet. To nourish his weakened spirit, villagers also began throwing bags of rice into the river. Both the act of beating drums and throwing rice to feed Qu Yuan's spirit are traditions that have carried through to today's dragon boat races. One of the rituals at the start of a dragon boat race is the awakening of the dragon. A taostic priest blesses the boat, and the dragon is awoken by coloring in the eyes on the dragon head. Many of the boats we race in Canada are fabricated by Six-Sixteen Dragon Boats Ltd. out of Vancouver, Canada. They seat 24 people, including one drummer and one steersperson. In Hong Kong, the standard boat seats 22 people. A powerful dragon boat team can generate enough horsepower to tow a water skier! For more information about modern dragon boating, visit the our

    The Tragically Quick thoroughly enjoyed their first two seasons of dragon boating,and look forward to making an even better showing at the 2000 Alcan

    Extractions: Started by the Chinese Benevolent Society during Vancouver's Expo '86, the Alcan (Canadian International) Dragon Boat Festival was an instant smash and has been a top Vancouver attraction ever since. The event has now spread across North America to other major cities such as New York, San Fransisco, Portland, and Toronto. The Vancouver event is by far the largest Dragon Boat Festival in North America, drawing 100,000 avid spectators and fans, eagerly cheering on their favorite team. Nothing matches the excitement of a dragon boat race, with 7 or 8 teams tensing every muscle in unison, racing neck-and-neck for the finish line, each boat's drummer in the bow beating an ever-faster rhythm that they must strain to paddle to. The race itself is complemented by a full-scale fair-style event, with jugglers, martial arts demonstrations, Hawaiian dancing, a children's activity centre with major corporate sponsors, and the largest Asian food pavilion in North America. The Tragically Quick thoroughly enjoyed their first two seasons of Dragon Boating, and look forward to making an even better showing at the 2000 Alcan (Canadian International) Dragon Boat Festival.
