The sixth annual Dragon Boat Festival goes today on the Kennebecasis River at Renforth Wharf.
Spokes-person Jill Logan tells CHSJ News, there are 44 teams entered.
Logan says all monies raised this year will go toward minimally invasive spine surgery equipment for the extended day surgery program at St. Joseph's Medical Center.
In the first five years, the event has raised over $1.25 million dollars.
