Construction on Portland's newest bridge, between the Marquam and Ross Island Bridges, began July 2011. All river traffic, including DragonSports dragon boats and outrigger canoes, are subject to no-wake zones and should stay within the 400-foot-wide channel in the center of the river as shown here. For more information on this project, please visit the TriMet website. |
Looking for information on the Portland Rose Festival Dragon Boat Races? You're close...
Many DragonSports Teams participate in Rose Festival, but the races are organized by the Portland-Kaohsiung Sister City Association, not DragonSports.
Please visit the PKSCA website for more information.
If you'd like to get a leg-up on Rose Festival, DragonSports Teams practice year-round in Hong Kong-style dragon boats with DragonSports USA. Email us and we'll try to connect you with a team.
