Baltimore City Dragon Boats


On Saturday September 8th, teams will compete in the Inner Harbor to be able to hoist the Dragon cup.  What's Dragon boat racing you say?  Boat are 41 feet long, but only 45 inches wide.  Teams of 20 rowers are accompanied by a drummer and steerer.  675 racers participated last time, making it a very impressive event.  The races are a blast to watch (not to mention free to see), and the benefits Catholic Charities.  More information can be found at the official site here.
