Teams of up to 17 are invited to take part in the ancient tradition of dragon boat racing by going head to head in magnificent 40' Chinese dragon boats. No previous experience is necessary and the boats and all racing equipment is provided, so all potential teams need do is enter a team with the festival organisers, Gable Events, and be sure to bring bucket loads of team spirit and enthusiasm on the day.
 
Sponsored by easycopiers for the second year in a row, this year the Festival is raising funds for MacIntyre, who work with over 900 children and adults with learning difficulties, and over 140 in Milton Keynes alone. MacIntyre do important work by increasing the choice available to those living with learning difficulties - both in terms of how they live their social lives and in education too.
 
The Milton Keynes Dragon Boat Festival sells-out year after year so anyone wishing to enter a team should do so sooner rather than later. And if you havn't the courage to enter yourself then why not come along on the day and support the 60+ teams. For further information and to enter a team please contact Gable Events on 01780 470718 today, or visit www.dragonboatfestivals.co.uk/miltonkeynes

Spectators are also welcome on the day to cheer on the teams!
