The modern era of dragon boating really took off in 1976, with the beginning of international dragon boat races in Hong Kong. The first U.S. festival started in Boston in 1979, and a donation of three dragon boats from Singapore was given to the city of San Diego in 1983. A race was held to send a team to an international competition in Singapore the following year. Today, over a hundred cities across the U.S. host dragon boat races and now it has come to Poughkeepsie!
