Title: 18th Annual Kaiser Permanente San Francisco International Dragon Boat Festival
Post by: paddlefanboy on September 10, 2013, 10:51:01 AM
Doesn't look like there are any Canadian teams coming down to T.I anymore. No JetStart, OneWest, Masters of Dzone, I still see Life Scan though.

No JetStart, No Dragonhearts, No Masters.  

I'm guessing everyone used up all their vacation time and travel money going to World's and Canadian Nationals this year

We may not hear the Canadian athem in SFO....but then again...it was probably over played at the worlds this year.  :P

The anthem will be played. The flag will be out.

@NFW I suspect your sources are better than mine.  I found out who is HNNNNING!   If it's their full roster then the flag will be out.
