Registration is now open for St Columba’s Hospice Care Dragon Boat Race

Registration is now open for the team-building event of the summer - St Columba's Hospice Care Dragon Boat Race, sponsored by Forth Ports Limited.

Go paddle to paddle with teams from across the capital in this exhilarating, fun-filled competition taking place at Port Edgar Marina on Saturday 7 September.

Interested, but not sure what it involves? Teams of 13-17 people race in dragon boats on a stretch of open water. Each team needs one team member to be a drummer to keep paddlers in time (no previous experience needed!) and you'll have a qualified helmsman on hand to guide your boat.

It's a great team-building experience, friends and family are welcome to come along and cheer you on too. Fun team names and fancy dress optional (but highly recommended).

So, what are you waiting for? Round up a team today and get #firedupontheforth for your local Hospice!
