We've got a special day planned that you don't want to miss! A Mini Dragon Boat SUMMIT It kicks off at 10am EST with a welcome and meet 'n greet, then there will be sessions every hour until about 5pm. Sessions on everything from steering, recruiting to grow your club or team, coaching basics, what to watch for as a coach and how to structure your video review, and opportunities to ask all your weirdest questions about anything and everything (dragon boat related) of course! We've taken all your feedback and are putting together the agenda and session descriptions, but wanted to get the date out there so you can plan. 🗓️ Sunday, June 28 ⏰ 10am - 5pm(ish) Eastern 💶 $20 to attend (replays included in reg fee) How to attend? We'll be creating a new "course" in the classroom that will be the summit container. When it's live, you can pay your reg fee right there and be good to go. All the individual sessions will be put on the calendar, and accessible to you once you've paid your fee. Replays will available to all registrants, but it will be a much better experience if you come LIVE. What questions do you have?

In the comments below tell us: 1. The steps you'd take to get ready for steering a race.   2. How you'd prepare for a 200 m vs a 2k.

Crashes and capsizes on the race course can happen, especially in a 2K race. In the comments below, tell us how you'd handle this scenario. If this HAS happened to you while you were steering, tell us how you handled it and what you'd do differently (if anything).

We originally started this community as a steering hub, but both Joann and I also love coaching paddlers and developing new coaches. So, over the coming months, we will be adding resources in both those realms. And we'd like YOU to help us shape that. So, tell us in the comments what you want the most support or training in! Answer the poll then expand in the comments. Which of these would you like to see us add next?

For many it's the start of the Dragon Boat season. How's it going so far? Any good gossip? 😁
