Practice Site

Due to the construction at One Main Place, the practice sessions this year will be held at the boat slips directly to the east of the Chancery Restaurant.  Click here for an aerial view of the practice site.

Parking - Team members may utilize street parking along Gaslight Drive or one of the City Parking Ramps: Gaslight Ramp, Lake Avenue Ramp and Shoop Ramp (Ramps are $1.50).  Please do not park in the One Main Place/M&I parking lot or the Case parking lot.

Additional Instructions

It is highly recommended that you make every effort to have your entire team at practice. We realize that not everyone is able to make it, but it is more effective when there is a full boat running on the water.

If any of your individual team members would like to have additional practice time, suggest that they go down to the practice site and paddle with a team which is practicing without a full crew.  While we can't guarantee they will get on, many teams have spots open during practice sessions and would welcome the help.  They will probably be asked to sign another waiver even if they have signed one already.  Encourage your team members to check the practice schedule to find out when teams are practicing each day.

The Great Midwest Dragon Boat Festival is presented by the Racine Rotary West in cooperation with the Racine County Convention and Visitors Bureau.
