闲来无事. 请多指教.

Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival History
The Ottawa Dragon Boat Race Festival began in 1993 with the assistance of the Hong Kong Canada Business Association. The first event only lasted half a day as there were only 25 teams participating. This little known sport eventually grew to be one of the hottest sporting events in the Nation's Capital and around the world.

渥太华龙舟节历史
渥太华龙舟节在加拿大香港商会的协助下于1993年创始. 因参加比赛的队伍只有25支, 第一次活动仅仅持续了半天. 然而这项当初鲜有人知的运动逐渐成为渥太华以及世界级的热门体育运动.

By 2001, the sport ? which once featured only 25 teams ? had 168 teams participating in both corporate and community categories over two days, making the Ottawa Dragon Boat Festival the second largest festival in Canada.

2001年, 此项运动从创始的25支参赛队发展到168支参赛队. 队伍来源非为公司企业以及社区团体. 比赛持续两天. 成为加拿大第二大体育节.

In 1998 a charitable component was added to the festival. Since the festival brings together people from around our great community (and country), it was decided that we should do as much as possible to give back to the community. So in 1998, the "Pledge Challenge" was instituted and to date our paddlers have raised over $250,000 for local charities.

1998年, 龙舟节增加了一项慈善活动. 因为龙舟节集合了各个社区团体(以及全国各地的人), 组织单位决定应尽最大努力为社区团体服务. 所以在1998年, "抵押品挑战"正式创立. 直至今天, 参赛者已为当地社区团体收集了超过25万加元的慈善捐助.

All proceeds from fundraising efforts in 2002 will go to the Ottawa Police Youth Centre, Alzheimer Society of Ottawa-Carleton, and the Special Needs Equipment Exchange.

2002年的所有的慈善捐助将用于"渥太华警察局青少年中心", "渥太华-卡尔顿地区老年痴呆症协会", 和"特殊需要器材交换"
