Our formal name is Cowichan Valley Jolly Dragons Seniors Team ..... way too much information!! Actually, we're a senior, 50 and better, group of active women & men, who, amongst our other sins, also paddle dragon boats! We paddle twice a week from April through until end of September, Mondays & Thursdays, in rain or shine on the relatively calm waters of Cowichan Bay. Wind can be a limiting factor in the decision to paddle but this rarely happens. Newbies and seasoned paddlers, 20 in all, meet under the watchful eyes of our coach & steers-person for sessions that last 1, 1/2 hrs. Fun, friendship and a little offsetting pain ..... without which there would be no gain! For the adventurous there is the added excitement and camaraderie of racing at venues including; Victoria, Nanaimo & Port Alberni. Interested, of course you are.
