Living Root is a competitive Boston-based dragon boat team. We race throughout the northeast and in Canada and are always looking for new paddlers to share the trophies with. No experience is necessary! Our awesome coaching staff will get you up to speed and into shape, and in no time flat you’ll be paddling across the finish line. We want you on our team! -
Your first two practices are free!
Contact Dave Parker, Team Captain (dfitzparker@gmail.com) or Sandy Parker, President (sandyparker2@gmail.com), or use our
contact form to get started. Our fees are simple: $200 per calendar year for all pool and water practices. You can pay for your membership via PayPal using the link below.
Our fees go towards paying for and insuring our two dragon boats, equipment, facilities usage, maintenance and repair.
