Pacemakers Dragon Boat Team Pacemakers is the official dragon boat team that represents the Faculty of Medicine at University of Toronto. We also want to party and have fun off the boat!

We are a social, but dedicated team of paddlers across all years of medicine with varying degrees of experience. Our training is extremely diverse, with practices in the gym, the pool and beautiful Lake Ontario. We work hard throughout the year in preparation for the big race at the Toronto International Dragon Boat Festival (TIDBF). The TIDBF is one of the most exciting summer events in Toronto.

It is a fun-filled 2 day festival at the Toronto Centre Island that brings together sportsmanship, team spirit, and community spirit. We focus on teamwork, developing technique and building cohesion among our members. From social events to stuffing our faces with delicious food after practice, it'll be a memorable experience you won't want to miss! Please stay tuned for more information about practice dates and locations.

Hi everyone,

We've changed the date for our first practice to THURSDAY (Sept 24), from 7-8 pm. Sorry for this change of plans but we wanted to have our preferred space - Hart House Lower Gym - for our first day, so any new members could see how practices usually run.

Anyone new to Hart House can meet us outside the changerooms at 6:50 and we'll show you how to get to the Lower Gym. All you need are workout clothes, running shoes, a water bottle and your STUDENT CARD to get into the gym.

Can't wait to see you and again sorry for the change of plans.
