The usual crew of a modern dragon boat typically consists of 22 people,including 20 paddlers in pairs facing the front of the boat.Then there is one drummer or caller at the front,facing the paddlers and finally one who steers(掌舵) standing at the rear end of the boat.Dragon boats vary in length,naturally changing the number of crew,from 10 paddlers in small dragon boats up to 50 paddlers in the traditional boats.
The international dragon boat festival in the west was first organized in June 1983 in San Diego,California.While in Boston,Massachusetts people find it good to observe over 50 teams racing down Charles River.The Boston Dragon Boat Festival is a total playing place for lovers of crafts(工艺品).There are many workshops you can join like making zongzi,folding paper into butterflies and boats and also decorating opera masks.
It is no argument that Denver in Colorado takes its racing quite seriously.The Colorado Dragon Boat Festival starts off with a 75foot dragon dance and a team parade in traditional Chinese costume.Following the opening ceremony,the festival includes both flagcatching races on Taiwanese boats and lightningspeed races on Hong Kong boats.The competition is sure to get you excited.
