Dragonboat race

Tuesday, September 6, 2022

Because our first dragonboat race at ICAC 2014 was such fun, we (you!) will do it again. Dragonboats (including guides) will be waiting for you on one of Magdeburg's waters (Lake "Salbker See"). You need to paddle! Fun is guaranteed, for some impressions click here! Please note: It could happen that you get a little bit wet; so, please bring appropriate clothes with you. Please also note: The dragon boat race is only possible for those participants who are able to swim. Facilities for changing clothes are provided. We will arrange a bus transfer to the Lake "Salbker See" and back to the Herrenkrug Parkhotel. For those of you who do not like to paddle, there is the opportunity to watch the race from stands. Also, barbeque food and drinks will be available for all.
