“We are so excited for The Colorado Dragon Boat Festival,” said Sare Moore, festival director. “We’ve been in existence for 23 years, and it has taken 23 years for us to purchase our new fleet of boats. So, all those yellow boats out there – they’re absolutely stunning. And it is the first new fleet in 23 years, and we’re just very excited about that.”

Organizers decided to purchase a new fleet rather than a few boats to ensure the boats are consistent and similar in how they’re made. “We would not be here without the community that we have here in Colorado, in Denver, the Asian American Pacific Islander community. We’re all in it together to just better Colorado,” Moore said.
