With a dual purpose to promote health and wellness and raise funds for three community-based organizations, the Cape Breton Dragon Boat Festival has become a signature event for Sydney’s waterfront.
Each year, thousands of spectators, teams and paddlers from across Canada take part in this event.
Last year’s festival raised more than $56,000 for the Cape Breton Regional Hospital Foundation, Special Olympics Cape Breton and the Cape Breastoners.
We look forward to sharing one of the summer's most exciting events with you!
Early bird bonus: register by May 11th, 2012 and pay a reduced registration of $750.
