We hope everybody had a fun time. We had fun introducing you to the fun sport of Dragon boat racing. It is conducted all around the world. In fact, Bay Area Dragons and some members of DragonMax will be racing at the World Championships in Penang, Malaysia in August. A number of the Alameda Dragon Flyers were in Portland on the weekend.
Charity
Our fund raising winner was Lucy's Party Boat with over $3000. We will be donating over $8K to each of the 2 charities. This is more than double last year's fund raising. Thanks to everyone for their hard work for these worthy causes. Exact count is forthcoming due to late bills and late checks.
Pictures
Hope you enjoyed the picture awards. That was a late decision and we had to get the frames rush engraved. Additional prints can be ordered from Justin at sillyjustin@... for $5 each.
