Rowing In Style

If you thought you had to travel to the Orient to experience the thrill of a Dragon Boat Race, you couldn’t be more wrong. You can take in an exciting race at the 4th Annual Chicago Southland Dragon Boat Festival in Blue Island on June 1st at the Metropolitan Water Reclamation District SEPA Waterfall and Park along the Cal-Sag. Watch the practices, enjoy craft beer and local cuisine and take in the race, awards ceremony and after party - or perhaps gather your own team to participate. The sight of these 46-foot dragon boats filled with teams of 20 rowers working collectively toward the finish line will be the highlight of your summer! ChicagoDragonBoats.com
