Bravo GWN Dragon Boat! A huge thank you to the hosts and organizers of this race! Mother Nature certainly put their organizational skills to the test when a downpour rolled through.
Thanks to thoughtful planning, great communication, and the ability to quickly pivot, the race was back up and running with little to no delay once the storm passed. It takes a tremendous amount of work behind the scenes to pull off an event like this—even more so when the unexpected happens.
Thank you to everyone who worked so hard to keep things safe, organized, and moving forward. Your efforts did not go unnoticed!

Wishing team member and paddler extraordinaire Gary Grassman a Big Happy Birthday!
