Have you always wanted to try dragon boating but weren’t sure how to start?
This Saturday, Aug. 13, at 10 a.m. the community is invited to come try dragon boating for free at Skaha Lake. With no registration required, anyone aged 16+ is welcome.
No experience is necessary and all equipment is provided.
“This is a great way to have some fun in the sun and meet some new people,” said the Penticton Dragon Boat Festival organizers who are putting on the clinic.
Introductory lessons are also available and starting soon, with online registration. For more information contact www.pentictondragonboat.com.

The full return of the Penticton Dragon Boat Festival is expected to be big after having to cancel last year.
