20 motivated paddlers from Rumania, Mexico, the USA, Finland, Kasakhstan, Hungary, Canada, Ukraine and of course China started as the international student team "A to the Power of Three" on the river Elbe. They raced for a cup in the 26th Dragonboat Festival organized in the scope of the Eastern Dresden district festival Elbhangfest.

This sports event was offered for the second time within the summer programme of the Cultural Office. All students took part in training before getting on board. They enjoyed most building up a team spirit, but also a fun and sporty event. Find some pictures and more impressions in the Dragonboat race Facebook event. After the race everybody went to enjoy the many events taking place during Elbhangfest.
