Last week the Kearney Breast Center Dragon Boat was successfully water-born in the Vancouver Lake.
Following a Catholic blessing and a Zen Buddhist blessing, the vessel was carried into the water and took a lap around Vancouver Lake crewed by breast cancer survivors.
Dr. Christine Katterhagan delivered an explanation of the health benefits for cancer patients in recovery to practice dragon boat racing. She also elaborated about the Breast, Cervical, and Colon Health Program and the impact of these free services.
