We are the Gig Harbor Dragon Boat Club, a team where passion, competition, and camaraderie come together for an experience like no other. We are all about teamwork, forging connections within our vibrant community, and becoming stronger, fitter, and more confident versions of ourselves.

Whether you're drawn to the thrill of racing, improved physical fitness, or the shared moments off the water, we invite you to the fun and exciting world of dragon boat racing. We warmly welcome seasoned paddlers and curious first-timers eager to explore the sport.

       

In the water, through the water, out of the water together!

This mantra, coined by Coach Anita, is about more than synchronized paddling. We are teammates both on and off the water, and our support for one another fosters enduring connections beyond the dragon boat.
