  • Shark Truth at the Dragon Boat Festival

    Dragon boating is an ancient Chinese water sport firmly rooted in myth and tradition. It started more than 2,000 years ago as a fertility rite in southern China that celebrated the coming solstice by awakening the slumbering Heavenly Dragon through the fury of their oars.

    Vancouver celebrates and continues this rich tradition by hosting the annual Dragon Boat Festival which attracts competition from teams across the globe and more than 100,000 eager spectators every year.

    Shark Truth made waves of its own that weekend with our concert stage adjacent information booth. We dazzled dragon boat fans with the latest in foldable Harry the Shark cutout technology, stupefied contestants with our dastardly educational quiz game, and buttoned Vancouver yellow with Harry’s handsome new and revolutionary medium, the Shark Truth button.

    One lucky new initiate to Harry’s adoring public, via our fantastically informative newsletter, won a diving package courtesy of Edge Diving.
