Dragon Boat “swimmers” appreciate the rescue




As team manager of the Spirit of the Wilderness Dragon Boat Team 2012 and on behalf of the entire team, I wish to heartily thank Cook County Law Enforcement, the DNR, the Coast Guard, CERT [Community Emergency Response Team] members and officials in the chase boat for our rescue during Race 3 of the Dragon Boat Races. You did a magnificent job in getting us out of the water and to safety.

Also thanks to the North Shore Dragon Boat Committee and Jim Wiinanen for their foresight in practicing such a rescue. Thank you all.

We also appreciated the award of World’s Best Donuts for “Best Swimmers”!
