UPDATE: The practice scheduled for Sun Sept 13th has been canceled.
The Oshkosh Dragonboat Club is planning a fun paddle/team training from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sun Aug 23rd in Winneconne. Launch point will be at Lang’s Landing. They were kind enough to let us use their private launch and docking space. In return please patronize their business at some point during the day.
We will be having a lunch break during the day at one of the businesses in town or you can bring your own picnic style lunch if you wish to. Stops are planned at the following businesses…The Other Place, The Fin and Feather, Lang’s Landing, and an appearance at Wolf River House Resorts and Cottages. There is also an ice cream shop downtown for those of you with a sweet tooth. The Village Pub and Woodeye’s are within walking distance and have very good sandwiches. Lang’s Landing only has pizzas, The Other Place, The Fin, Village Pub, and Woodeye’s have a full menu.
Water balloon’s have been known to fly in Winneconne so plan on getting wet. We will be distributing flyer’s at some of the local businesses so plan on a few new faces in the boat throughout the day. We will be there to primarily promote the growth of the club and answer any questions people may have. If it rains this event will be cancelled.
