He did great and we were all so excited.  May have been tough for him as this is a competitive team and they spent their time in the dragon boat practicing race starts in preparation of the Tampa Festival next week.  He took direction from Grace the coach and both kept up with the team and was synchronized which is what it is all about.

How many other cities can say their Mayor was willing to see the gem of a boat and get right in and paddle.  Hats off Mayor Dyer.
