Water taxi and dragon boats
On the evening of Tuesday May 28th from around 5 to 7 pm, prior to the diner at De Rietschans, a dragon boat tour over the Paterwoldsemeer will be held. The tour can end in a short race. Four dragon boats, each steered by a professional drummer, are available. Each boat can hold up to 16-20 people. Two rounds are possible in the time frame.
This is an outdoor activity and one can possibly get a bit wet. So it is advised to wear sporty clothes.
Start and finish are at De Rietschans, which is located at the lakeside, about 1.5 km from the Familiehotel. The trip from the venue to the restaurant can be made using a water taxi. But one is of course free to walk or use other means of transportation.
