DRAGON MAX & AV VOLUNTEERS
RACE ON A DAY OF ALL WINNERS!
 
 
The Dragon Max team graciously hosted the event on a day of warm, blue skies and calm seas. On Saturday June 11, 2016, Dragon Max's Mary McDonald (AV Volunteer as well) and Diane Newton-Shaw led pre-race warm up stretches at Berkeley Marina. Next, the volunteers strapped on their life vests, hoisted paddles, and took their places in the ready boats and headed into the waters to tour the marvelous houseboats, then a lap (or two) of a competitive race to victory! (The winning boat was led once again by Pat Carvalho and her team of volunteers in boat #1, whose boat repeated last year's winning performance.)

Glad to be back on terra firma, the volunteers enjoyed a picnic lunch on the lawn and a "getting to know you" activity of answering fun random questions such as "most annoying celebrity." (Trump was hands down everyone's first choice.)
 
Volunteers Celie Placzek and Peggy Malley took great photos to help everyone remember a fantastic day.
