What a great day for racing! Good friends, good racing, and good times! The newly named mixed team "Rene-Bros" took 2nd in C Division, and women's team "Delicate Wilting Flowers" took 1st in D division. Great paddling from everyone today!

Thank you, Olympia, for hosting this race, it's one of my favorites! Next race, Portland!

More photos to come, but here's the medal photo! Women's C division Gold and Mixed B division silver!

What a come back day! Better weather really helped lift spirits! Renegade Mixed and Women's both had stellar racing today! Mixed top time today was a smoking 3:06.88, and the Women took Silver medals in division 2 with a time of 3:17.43. It was just such a fun day! We could not be more proud of this team this weekend! Amazing job, Renegades!

Eventful day 1 of Rose Fest! We've got stories and silliness and memories. The weather today could not make up its mind, and we paddles in wind, rain, hail and sun. Tomorrow we begin semifinals bright and early, hopefully with some better weather on our side!

OHS’s museum recently received a donation of an anniversary jersey from the Pink Phoenix Dragon Boat Team (OHS Museum, 2026-16). Stop by the museum to see the jersey on display in our permanent exhibition, Rivers, Roses, and Rip City: The Remarkable History of Portland!

Pink Phoenix is the first U.S. dragon boat team for breast cancer survivors. This jersey celebrates their 30th season, weaving Portland’s skyline, bridges, and river into its design. The roses on the sleeve are a nod to the team’s ceremony honoring those affected by cancer. The phoenix rising over the city is a celebratory symbol of survivors reclaiming their strength.

The Pink Phoenix Dragon Boat Team will race in the Portland Rose Festival June 6 and 7 on the Willamette River near the Hawthorne Bridge. Best of luck, Pink Phoenix Breast Cancer Survivor Dragon Boating Team!
