A Breast Cancer Survivor Dragon Boat Team 

on Central Vancouver Island

Join Now

Our Story

Abreast of Life Dragon Boat Team for Central Vancouver Island was founded in 1998 by a group of women who were all breast cancer survivors. 

Read More & Hear our cheer!

Our Values

We believe in living life to the fullest, embracing love, life & laughter.


Fundraising and community support enabled us to purchase a secondhand dragon boat which was one of the original False Creek "six sixteen" boats made in Vancouver.


The team is made up of paddlers from Nanaimo, Nanoose, Parksville, Qualicum, Errington, Whiskey Creek and Qualicum north.


As a CRA registered charity (#885969022 RR0001), we raise money each year through our annual golf tournament to support travel to races as well as donate to the Nanaimo Regional General Hospital.
