Title: SFU Team Alumni Post by: presley on March 24, 2004, 05:12:39 PM Chaos ... I wonder if we know each other. I was affiliated with the SFU team in 97 and started paddling with them in 98. I paddled with SFU, stuck with it at Lotus, then we became Adrenaline ...
There are 3 of us on the Drunk'n Dragons ... don't know where the rest of the ex-Adrenaline crew has gone. Title: SFU Team Alumni Post by: DBWTim on March 31, 2004, 09:42:46 AM Hmm... interesting. I was on the team in '96 when the team was called the Kilted Phoegons paddling out of Lotus at Barnet Marine Park. I actually still have several of the oversized t-shirts that we were selling for fundraising. I don't think you could've missed me... scrawny Asian guy that never smiled and looked like he had a chip on his shoulder? If I recall correctly, I think I might've been the only Asian guy that year. Think I was seated in 3-Right... it's all kinda hazy though.
Regarding Adrenaline paddlers, I knew a bunch of them... I'm surprised Denise didn't try to keep Adrenaline going.. she seemed so gung-ho about dragonboating... I bumped into Soriya a couple weeks ago at DragonZone... couldn't remember what team she was with now. Aside from the paddlers that I paddled with back then... I've also paddled with Jim in '02 when we tagged along with Nokia in Victoria... I also email Marcia once in awhile (she was my co-op advisor when I was up at SFU) and in the last email she told me that she was taking time off from dragonboat this year. *EDIT* - I mean '97... I was with VO2Max in '96... Title: SFU Team Alumni Post by: presley on March 31, 2004, 09:49:27 AM Denise is one of the 2 paddlers who wanted to stick around with Adrenaline this year.
I have the same oversized tshirt from the Kilted Phoegans. In fact, I have 2 of them. I didn't paddle that year with the team, though. Do you remember Mark Robinson? He's my ex-fiancé, and the reason I got into dragonboating in the first place. He paddled with us on Adrenaline until 2 years ago, when time commitments didn't allow it any more. Did you know Tom? Hmmm - there weren't too many left who'd been on the SFU team. What about Ricky and Newton? They haven't paddled with our team for a while, but I catch up with them every year at the festival. I don't think I know who you are, but perhaps in passing I would recognize you :) |
