BUILDING ON THE STRENGTH OF OUR FIRST YEARS, L3C ENTERED THE YEAR BY AGAIN OPENING UP THE EVENT, FREE OF CHARGE, TO ANY AND ALL CANCER SURVIVOR TEAMS; PREVIOUSLY ESTABLISHED OR INITIATED FOR THIS EVENT. OVER 24 TEAMS REGISTERED FOR THE EVENT LAST YEAR, AND WE AGAIN WILL AWARD CHAMPIONSHIPS IN NO LESS THAN 6 DIVISIONS, INCLUDING CHARITY, SCHOLASTIC, SURVIVORS AND WOMEN'S WHOSE ENTRY FEES WERE EXEMPTED. (MORE IMPORTANTLY, THEY FUNDRAISED VIA THEIR PARTICIPATION). INITIAL RESPONSE WAS AS IN PREVIOUS YEARS VERY WELL RECEIVED, AND WE LOOK FORWARD TO THE WORD SPREADING AS CHATTER AT EVENTS ACROSS THE COUNTRY UNFOLDS. THE UNITED STATES DRAGON BOAT FEDERATION (USDBF) AND SOUTHEASTERN REGIONAL DRAGON BOAT ASSOCIATION (SRDBA) BOTH INDICATED THIS, (EXEMPTED FEES) WAS UNPRECEDENTED AMONGST OTHER SIMILAR EVENTS IN THE US AND SAID THEY WILL ALSO PROMOTE THE INVITATION TO ITS MEMBERS.

AS IN PREVIOUS YEARS OUR RACES HAVE BEEN SANCTIONED BY BOTH GOVERNING BODIES MEANING ANY NATIONAL MEMBER CAN PARTICIPATE IN OUR EVENT AND EARN POINTS TOWARD THEIR (AMATEUR) ELIGIBILITY TO QUALIFY FOR BOTH THE REGIONAL AND THE NATIONAL CLUB CREW CHAMPIONSHIPS. THOUGH L3C HAS YET TO REALIZE SOLVENCY FOR THIS EVENT WE REMAIN COMMITTED TO OUR BEDROCK MISSION TO ACT AS A CATALYST FOR LOCAL CHARITIES IN THEIR MISSIONS TO BETTER THE LIVES OF A BROAD POPULATION HERE IN METRO/JEFFERSON COUNTY.
