| Stumptown Paddlers is a mixed dragon boat team (both male and female paddlers) from Portland, Oregon.
Originally formed in 1997 by paddlers from the PCC team, we are one of Portland's oldest continually competing dragon boat teams.
Our dedicated crew of dragon boat paddlers range in age from 18 to... well... we're not saying exactly how old. We are not affiliated with any particular company or school - we're just a group of people who enjoy paddling together. By day we are teachers, engineers, students, salespeople, government workers... but once on the boat we become a powerful paddling force with a penchant for pranks. We often have the best tent snacks and it's not a coincidence that our practice schedule tends to coincide with happy hour. We laugh a lot, and we paddle hard, and sometimes we even win some races.
In short, we're a pretty fun group - we're the Stumpies. |
