Event Info

Sunday 22 September – Mote Park, Maidstone, Kent

The annual dragon boat challenge is staged by the KM Charity Team to help charitable groups with their fundraising. Choose to take part in this exciting team challenge and raise some much needed funds for YLF!

Teams of 11 compete with one of the crew beating a drum to dictate the pace of the paddles. They take part in a minimum of three races but the fastest teams compete in the finals at the end of the day. You may have up to 17 rowers in your squad, so fill all 17 spaces to raise more money and everyone will have at least 2 races on the day.
