Description
SEIZE THE RIVER! PADDLE ON A DRAGON BOAT!
The Cleveland Dragon Boat Association (CDBA) is a nonprofit organization that promotes and provides recreational dragon boat paddling and competitive racing at Rivergate Park, on the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland's Flats. CDBA also provides coaching for competitive racing at festivals throughout the region, team building/development activities and ongoing recreational paddling opportunities.
CDBA is committed to promoting local, regional, national and international amateur dragon boating participation and competition. In celebration of the cultural diversity of Cleveland and the Midwest, CDBA will present activities that foster community involvement, as well as cross cultural awareness and understanding.
We seek new members for this fast-growing club. No paddling experience is required. New paddlers may attend any club practice sessions. All needed equipment and paddling instruction is provided (paddles, life jackets, boats). Most importantly, dragon boat paddling is great exercise, fosters a wholesome social network and is a whole lot of fun!
WHEN ARE PRACTICE SESSIONS:
Call Michael, Volunteer Coordinator on the Dragon Boat Hotline (216-221-1389) for information about practice sessions.
Practice Sessions require a minimum of ten paddlers. Contact CDBA prior to each session to confirm that practice will be held!
Persons under 18 must be accompanied by a guardian or parent.
WHERE WE PRACTICE: On the Cuyahoga River in Cleveland's Historic Flats District at Rivergate Park, 1785 Merwin Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44113.
DRAGON BOAT HOTLINE: 216-221-1389 (Michael)
