Draggin' Butt rules the RedOnce again, Boogie's Draggin' Butt can claim to be the best boat on the water. Boogie's took the cup as the fastest team in the Manitoba Dragon Boat Festival's Mixed Recreational Division!
Boogie's also claimed the "Homebodies" award, given to the team that spent the most time in the Dragon's Lair Beer Tent, and ALSO won, for the THIRD TIME, the
"George Jarvis Sportsmanship Award". We are very proud of all our paddlers, and we think we did our sponsor proud.
It was a great weekend. Congrats to all teams and participants for taking us all one step closer to finding a cure for cancer.

FMG/ CCS eventWell, it's almost time for the 2009 Canadian Cancer Society "Manitoba Dragon Boat Festival", (Sept. 11-13 at The Forks) and all the 120+ teams are in the home stretch in preparation.
Judging by the practices, there looks to be a lot of very talented teams entered this year! Should make for a very interesting event.
Boogie's Draggin' Butt wishes all teams entered the best of luck.

MPA resultsCongrats to the Boogies entry into the recent MPA competition in Transcona. We had paddlers from both the rec and competitive team in this event, and our squad had an "interesting" weekend, but managed to win the "D" Division. After being bogged down in lane 1 for our 200m sprint AND our 2 seeding heats, we finally were sprung from lane 1 hell into lane 3 for our final, where we posted the FASTEST TIME of the day (2:16 and change), beating the times in the "C", "B" and even the "A" Division finals.
Well done team! Thanks to John Stobart, Brad and Ross for helping us fill the boat on the weekend. Next up...FMG here we come!
