Description

Raquette River Dragon Boat Festival
3RD ANNUAL EVENT
Hosted by: Clarkson University Physician Assistant Program

Dragon boat racing is a fun sport with a rich history. It is currently practiced in more than 50 countries and there are an estimated 50 million active dragon boat paddlers in the world -- and this July, you could become one of them!

Register to race for free!
As a paddler, you are asked to earn pledges before race day.
There will be prizes for the top pledge earners.
The festival also includes food trucks, drink trucks, music, free health screenings, various games, and more.

Not only is it an amazing event for the community, but it is also an important fundraising opportunity for the PA students! The proceeds help support community service outreach, mission trips, health initiatives, experiential learning, and health education within St. Lawrence County.
