This Canada Day, the club invited the public to swing by, meet some members, and take a spin in a dragon boat with some of our established paddlers. Thanks to some terrific FCRCC volunteers, there were over 200 new paddlers introduced to the sport of Dragon boating. There were smiles all around. Meanwhile, on another location on Granville Island, the FCRCC with local partners promoted the club’s environmental philosophy of working to help preserve the False Creek waterways through education and concerted garbage clean-up efforts.
