For the safety of the participants, supporters and community, we have made the difficult decision

Thank you to the many sponsors and teams who have already committed to participate this year. 
​Keep practicing and keep fundraising! 
Decatur Morgan Hospital needs your prayers and support more than ever.  We are so proud to work
among an amazing and courageous group of nurses, doctors, respiratory therapists and other team members who serve this community day in and day out, in good times and in crisis.

Please keep your paddles and your chins up - we’ll get through this together! 
​Thank you for your support!
Dragon boat participants are passionate about this sport. People love it – the thrill, the teamwork, the adrenaline, the interaction in the boat – everything. People are drawn to this sport and to each other in a setting that exemplifies human connectivity on a level comparable to nothing else. People who never thought of themselves as athletes can thrive in a dragon boat. People who are athletes
discover a challenging
alternative to general sports.
