The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted our community in countless ways. As eager as we are to reconnect members through the love of dragon boating, we are taking all necessary precautions to ensure the health and safety of those in attendance. The safety of our community and participants is always at the forefront of festival planning, and organizers continue to work closely with the Simcoe Muskoka District Health Unit to follow all health and safety measures.
