The Rotary Club of Peachtree City hosts the 14th annual event celebrating the rich history of dragon boats, which dates back more than 2,000 years.
Today it is one of the fastest-growing water sports globally, with a world championship held annually in Hong Kong since 1976.
Picture an elongated canoe with a dragon’s head carved in the front and about a dozen people sitting side by side, paddling furiously to beat their opponents in a race.
Put dozens of teams in one competition and you have the Dragon Boat Festival races in Peachtree City.
The event features entertainment and multiple categories, awards and prizes. It all benefits local charity Southside Support, which promotes education, training, support, and inclusion opportunities for families and individuals with special needs in the South Metro Atlanta area.

Address: Lake Peachtree 155 Willowbend Rd, Peachtree City, GA
