The Dream Factory is proud to partner with the Manitoba Paddling Association to host one of the summer's biggest events: The River City Dragon Boat Festival beginning on Friday, June 5th, 2020. Dragon boating is one of Winnipeg's most popular summer events and we are excited for you to be part of it!
Get your team of 20 friends, family, and/or co-workers together and get ready to have fun while supporting a great cause! Whether you are a long-time dragon boater or have never paddled before - this festival is a great way to have fun and help us to make dreams come true for some very special kids.
The festival is a fundraiser for The Dream Factory, a Winnipeg based charitable organization dedicated to fulfilling dreams for Manitoba kids who are battling life- threatening illnesses. We suggest that each team raise a minimum of $2,500.00. The funds you raise will go directly to making dreams come true for kids who desperately need a break from hospitals, medical treatments and other challenges they will face on their journey. All funds raised stay in Manitoba.
All teams are guaranteed 3 races, weather permitting. The Top 8 Fundraising Teams will again be honoured in a special feature race.
Safety is a top priority. Boats, paddles and personal floatation devices will be provided. Instruction and race supervision will be provided by the Manitoba Paddling Association. Practice sessions start weekday evenings in early May.
