BLINDSTART's Dragon Boat Race team is practicing for races in Long Beach on July18/19. Feel free to come down and assist our Visually Impaired People (VIP'S) land, board, and assist them in anyway at Mother's Beach on Sunday, July 5th. Some have guide dogs that need to be watched while owners are on the water. You will also learn how to become a Sighted Guide! Mother's Beach is a great location where many Dragon Boat Teams practice.
