MyRWA Pride Flotilla w/Living Root Dragon Boat

Come join Living Root Dragon Boat as we paddle in the Mystic River Water Association (MyRWA) Pride Flotilla on Saturday June 28th from 11 am to 1 pm in the Mystic River in support of the LGBTQ+ community. We took part in the Pride Flotilla last year and are excited to be a part of this event this year. We will meet at our practice site at Rivergreen Park in Everett, MA and paddle over to join the flotilla by 12pm. We will join the celebration at Blessing of the Bay in Somerville before paddling back to the dock.

Are you new to paddling? No problem! We'll show you everything you need to know to paddle on a dragon boat. This is a great way to meet people, get in shape, and do something fun in the sun (or rain!). Our team is a social and friendly co-ed group that enjoys being on the water, getting a workout, and competing in races all over the country.

We paddle rain or shine, so dress for the weather. Wear comfortable workout clothing and footwear that you don't mind getting wet. Bring a bottle of water, and we'll provide all the paddling equipment you'll need and a place to lock up your belongings. We often head out for a quick bite to eat after practice. So come join us! Questions? Ask any Organizer!
