‘Twas the season of cheer down by Spa Creek’s shore,
Where the dragons set sail with strength at their core.
Through waters so calm or with waves in full roar,
We paddle together — each stroke, something more.
For survivors of battle, for warriors so strong,
In this dragon boat family, you’ll always belong.
With courage and hope in each blade that we dip,
We’re charting new courses on this healing ship.
With laughter and love, and pink hearts so true,
We celebrate victories — each day feels brand new.
Through paddling, we find what the season’s about:
Strength in our spirit and fears cast out.
So here’s to the crew, and the friends we hold dear,
Merry Christmas to all, and a paddling New Year!
With warmth and wishes,
Your Annapolis Dragon Boat Club family
