A huge thank you to the efforts of Sister Shen who made all this possible; she brought this event
together combining the youth of the Montgomery Chinese Branch and Kentland's Ward for their first Dragon Boat Race as well as organizing an adult team. After practicing twice with different coaches, the youth and adult worked together as a team, worked on their synchronization paddling techniques, and the teams were ready to race!
On a beautiful Saturday 5/16/15, there were nearly 50 teams that showed up for the race! All the practices must have worked, they youth team received bronze medals and the adult team received silver in their respective tiers. It was great team effort! Both youth and adults had a terrific time!
Thanks to all the youth, parents, and carpoolers to make this possible. Below are photos, slideshow of photos, as well as some video clips from the event. Click on any of them to see it larger.
