Hey Team,

The USA "Under 23" team is competing in the Prague Race in late August and is looking for more paddlers. Here is the website: http://wc2009.dragonboat.cz/EN/with more information on the acutal race. It will cost about $2,000 for everything. It looks like an amazing experience with TONS of teams from around the world. It is a once in a life-time experience not only in terms of dragon boat experience but also in life in general. When will you ever be able to say that you competed in a WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP!? If you're interested, email us back, and we'll get more information about it to you!

Summer Update #2

Jul 2nd, 2009 12:08:37 am - Subscribe

Hey guys,

First of all, please update your response on the evite with what time you can leave on the Friday before the Sprint Races, if you haven't already.

Final roster for Sprints (those who are racing):

Alex Yu
Virginia Lauren
Julie Derrick
Kyle Chris
Sean Yoshi
Justin Brian
Davin Simone
Kevin C. Angela Z.
Patrick Julia
Chex Adeline
Angela N.
David

Important dates for this week:

Thursday: Land practice at Drake, 6pm.
Saturday and Sunday: LAST two boat practices before Sprints Races. Everyone who is racing needs to be there.
Saturday after practice: 4th of July social/BBQ (tentatively) at Kyle's place. Time TBD.

Also, last weekend, a couple of us went to a captain's meeting for the Long Beach race. One of the adult coaches announced that there will be the first international college dragon boat competition in China in October. She also mentioned that Dr. Chen (who owns all the boats at Long Beach) might be willing to subsidize the winning college team at Long Beach to attend the competition. Although this is not finalized, we wanted to let everyone know of the possibility and perhaps provide a little extra incentive for the upcoming races. Think of it...CHINA....

See everyone on Thursday!

Week 1!

Jun 23rd, 2009 1:46:38 pm - Subscribe

Hey all,

Good job at practice for those who came despite the low turn out. This is just a reminder of the schedule for the upcoming week.

Tuesday - Land Practice at 6:00PM at Drake

Thursday - Land Practice at 6:00PM at Drake

Saturday - Boat Practice, 9:30, meet at new location

Sunday - Boat Practice, 9:30, meet at new location

Since most of us do not live in the dorms, we moved our meet up location to the outside of 527 Midvale Ave. in between Levering and Ophir. Please try to be there by 9:30 sharp. We don't want to waste any practice time because we have a limited amount of water time for the upcoming sprints. Evites for those practices will be sent out soon. As a reminder, the sprints are on July 12th and we will have double practices leading up to the race.
