About this event
FYI- runs 8:30-3:30pm to cheer on our friends and check out the exciting races for the Dragon Boat 25th year competition as part of September’s Pawtucket Arts Festival. This is a public event. Since these are ongoing rounds, I am posting as a FYI. Drop in anytime. The landing area is small so there is a free shuttle to the area or you can park down the street and walk to the area where you will find the team getting ready and competing. If you do want to post in the comments if you are there we can look for you. Go or stay as long as you are able. Rain or shine. In addition to the races for us to cheer for there will be a special 10 drum percussion group, Dumpling eating contest ($20), Lion dancers and food trucks. Here is more info on the event and link to make a donation to support these annual races that train all-year. https://bvtcri.org/dragonboats
