– participate every year, and many teams have already begun their fundraising
efforts for the 2015 festival.
“The festival continues to amaze me year after year,” said Meagan Labriola,
executive director of DBC. “The tremendous effort in tent decor, costumes,
practicing and fundraising is a testament to the community’s belief in cancer
survivorship in our community.”
The next big celebration of cancer survivors and dragon boat paddling is set
for Sept. 13 at Trophy Lakes on Johns Island. The Carolina Celebration Cup
starts at 10 a.m. Admission is free and there will be food trucks, music, games
and more to enjoy in addition to the races. More information is available at
.
In honor of DBC’s 10th year of promoting the mental and physical health
of cancer survivors, Charleston Mayor Joe Riley has signed an official proclama-
tion making October 2014 National Dragon Boat Charleston Month.
More than $150,000 was raised at the Seventh Annual Charleston Dragon Boat Festival by 66 teams
made up of DBC members, local residents and volunteers from area businesses and organizations.
The Hat Ladies of Charleston took honors for Best Team Costume at the 7th Annual Dragon Boat Festi-
val, proving that you can paddle in a poodle skirt.

“Providing Mt. Pleasant a Dental
Experience Far From Ordinary!”
Located in the heart of Old Mount Pleas-
ant near Shem Creek, Dr. Morris has
served the community for over 30 years.
He continues to provide superior family
and cosmetic dentistry and is proud of the
many patients who travel from other states
to see “their only dentist,” trusting his in-
tegrity, skill, and judgement.
“It is the ultimate reward, also, to now be
seeing the children and grandchildren of my
first patients. For that, I am most grateful.”
