Dragon Boats on Tempe Town Lake
by Nina Bernardo
Join Arizona Disabled Sports at Tempe Town Lake for the fourth annual Pedal N’ Paddle Fest on Saturday, Oct. 21! Take a spin around the lake in style with an adaptive cycle and then cruise the waters by kayak or dragon boat. This unique event is open to everyone with a physical disability and it only costs eight dollars! Caregivers, family members and friends may also participate for twelve dollars.
Sponsored by the Arizona Disabled Sports and Arizona Dragon Boat Association, this is your opportunity to enjoy the lake. Try out adaptive cycling and kayaking with Arizona Disabled Sports. Plus, it’s the perfect chance to experience the ancient sport of dragon boat racing as you paddle together with a team to propel a long boat.
All participants will be given the chance to participate in adaptive cycling and either kayaking or dragon boat racing. All guests will receive an event t-shirt and a picnic lunch sponsored by a local vendor. Dragon boat participants must have complete trunk control with upright sitting independence, but kayaking is open to all ability levels.
Join Arizona Disabled Sports and Arizona Dragon Boat Association from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM at the SRP Tempe Town Lake Marina and enjoy October’s outdoor fun!
Please contact Arizona Disabled Sports at 480-835-6273 for registration and additional information.
