It seemed like it had only just begun, then before they knew it the Pink Dragons were collecting their medals at the Nationals in Rotorua! They have had a great year with many highs along the way but the season’s highlight was their overseas trip to Sydney and taking part in the Dragons Abreast Regatta in Darling Harbour.
Whilst the dragon boat season may have come to an end, paddling is still an option for team members as Polar Bears training is now up and running each Sunday morning, currently being held on Lake Pupuke. This training offers paddlers the opportunity to maintain their paddling fitness throughout the winter months.
The Pink Dragons are also meeting once a month for team fitness walks in Cornwall Park, including a coffee break, giving them the chance to catch up with other team members as well as keeping fit. It is also a great opportunity for anyone who might be interested in joining the team to come along and have a chat to team members.
The team is currently looking for new team members who are breast cancer survivors (male or female) so if anyone is interested in finding out more about their team or how to join, they welcome your enquiries through their website www.pinkdragons.org.nz.
