The Wellness Community Dragon Boat team at the Boston Chinese Dragon Boat Races and Festival.

 

Welcome!
to The Wellness Community Dragon Boat racing page. We are a Dragon Boat team of cancer survivors and caregivers. Our name is the Wellness Warriors.

Our team is made up of men and women, who come together to share good fun, friendship and great exercise. When we are out on the water, we can set aside our disease and live life to the fullest as our paddles strike the water together. Our goal as a team is to inspire and bring hope to other cancer survivors. If you are one of those survivors or a family member or friend, we encourage and welcome you to join with us in this popular sport.

Participation on the Wellness Community team is free of charge. No experience is necessary. We provide the boat, paddles, lifejackets and coaching.

We practice each year from May through August once a week from the MIT Boathouse on the Charles River in Cambridge, Massachusetts.
