North Wales Dragon Boat Festival
The first ever North Wales Charity Dragon Boat Festival is coming to Rhyl on Sunday 9th September 2012.This interesting form of boat racing is on its way and anyone can be a part of it! In the Marine Lake, Rhyl, groups of 14-20 people will face off in a series of timed competitive races throughout the day and at the end, the best teams will face each other in the Grand Final. This grand final is an all out race using all the dragon boats available in a spectacular fashion, and the winners will be given the title of Dragon Boat Champions of North Wales 2012.
This ever popular boat sport relies on the combined effort of all the members of the team, and the skills involved in rowing are very quick to pick up, so because of this, no experience is needed in Dragon Boat racing, so anyone can take part.
Full instructions will be given on the day. Make sure you attend this incredible event that is sure to be an absolutely fantastic day out, and if you don’t want to take part, simply sit back and enjoy the show.
The minimum age for entry is 14, and entry closes at 10:00am on the day. The entry charge per team is £395 until August 30th where it goes up to £435. Doors are open from 10 am to 3:30 pm.
