The Lake Bemidji Dragon Boat Festival is once again partnering with the American Cancer Society Beltrami County Relay for Life to invite Cancer Survivor/Supporter teams to participate in this year’s festival.
There will be Cancer Survivor/Supporter heats at the end of the morning session of races, followed by a rose ceremony honoring cancer survivors and those we’ve lost to cancer.
In addition, all of the money raised through entry fees and donations for the 2nd annual Cornhole Tournament on Thursday, August 2nd will go to Beltrami County Relay for Life!
Cancer/Survivor teams send out an inspirational message encouraging all cancer survivors to live life to the fullest after a cancer diagnosis. They paddle together for life-affirming exercise and camaraderie. The Lake Bemidji Dragon Boat Festival can give each survivor/supporter team a way to introduce people to the sport of Dragon Boating and help others in our community diagnosed with cancer.
Join us for lots of fun and a great cause: spreading support and joy to our local cancer survivors as they fight the toughest battle imaginable.
