BreastStrokes

BreastStrokes Welcome to Official page for Guelph/Cambridge ON & area Breast Cancer Survivor/Supporter Dragon Boat team paddling@Puslinch,ON.

Administered by Breaststrokes support services executive board. We represent all members of our not for profit organization. Our team consists of energetic, motivated, forward thinking women who have all experienced breast cancer first-hand. We paddle to support each other and to stay strong. The Breaststrokes Dragon Boat Team formed in Guelph, Ontario, Canada in 1998. From early days using brooms

ticks to paddle in a (dry) church basement, the team now has our own dragon boat moored on local lakes. The Breaststrokes team works hard to promote awareness of health, life and laughter after breast cancer. We celebrate life through the pursuit of fitness and wellness, mutual support, community philanthropy, and competition in Dragon Boat Festival races. We believe any person with breast cancer who wishes to dragon boat paddle should have that opportunity, because together, we are all winners! Our goal is to honour the memory of those who have died of breast cancer and spread a message of hope to all people living life after a breast cancer diagnosis.

🐲 πŸŽ„With the holiday season upon us we thought we would share a link if you are a business or individual looking to donate any amount you are able to a worthy and appreciated cause towards breast cancer survivors. You can read more below. Paddles UP! πŸŽ—οΈπŸ’—

πŸ™Œ As some know, Jane Frost of Vancouver, BC was passionate about serving her community. She spent 27 years travelling over the world sharing messages of HOPE to those living with breast cancer.

Here is more background on Jane for the ones who are not aware of what Jane had accomplished with Dr Don McKenzie in regards to dragon boating for survivors.

Her energy as a volunteer activist on behalf of charitable causes was remarkable.

Jane established and presided over the International Breast Cancer Paddling Commission and the Breast Cancer Society.

She was one of the "Originals" - a founding member of Abreast In A Boat. Early on when it was time for the team to disband, Jane refused to put down her paddle, was determined to charge ahead and continue the cause.

The impact of her decision had a profound effect throughout the world. She travelled as far as India, Fiji, Italy, Argentina, New Zealand and beyond with her beloved teammates intent on spreading a message of hope.

She was a champion and mentor to thousands of women, inspiring breast cancer survivors to live proud, healthy lives. Jane received many awards for her charitable efforts.

She was especially honoured to receive the Golden Jubilee Medal from the Queen and one of her personal highlights was paddling the Thames at the Queen's Diamond Jubilee.

In 2006, Jane was awarded the B.C. Achievement Community Award for her astounding efforts.
