The Peekskill Rotary Club sponsored a boat in the first annual Dragon Boat Race on the Hudson River during Peekskill’s Celebration Week in August, raising $1,000 to will help enhance the economic vitality of the community. The crew of 20 members, family and friends practiced Aug. 3 and competed against 10 other boats Aug. 6, finishing in 5th place. In the second photo, Peekskill Rotary Club Secretary Josette Dewey is in the bow of boat #3, banging out a beat for the club’s oarspeople. Several other members of the club separately sponsored boats, with Rotarian Larry DeNoia’s company boat winning the event.
