Busting With Energy Dragon Boat Team Inc. Inspiring strength, resilience and hope. When we are together in the boat, our team chant says it all:

HAND IN HAND, WE FIGHT THE FIGHT. Paddles up 💗

Celebrating 25+ years of supporting BCS and thrivers in Saskatchewan through recovery-focused exercise, dragon boat paddling, physical wellness, peer support, community connection and breast cancer awareness. Busting With Energy Dragon Boat Team is a Saskatoon-based not-for-profit team made up of approximately 40 Saskatchewan breast cancer survivor thrivers. Our paddlers range in age from 30+ to 80+, and while we may be small in numbers, we are mighty in spirit, strength, and heart. Together, we paddle with purpose — sharing hope, resilience, friendship, and the message that there is life after breast cancer. Through movement, connection, and support, we strive to inspire others facing a cancer diagnosis to live each day fully and courageously. SISTERHOOD HELPS MAKE THINGS RIGHT. ONE FOR ALL AND ALL FOR ONE—
JUST BY BEING HERE, WE’VE WON. WE ARE... BUSTING WITH ENERGY!

What a great way to spend the weekend!

Busting With Energy was proud to be out in our community volunteering at a water station for the 2026 Step Up for Mental Health Run.

Cheering on the participants, handing out water, sharing smiles, and supporting an event that brings people together for such an important cause made for a wonderful day.

For our team, community is about more than paddling—it’s about showing up, supporting one another, and making a difference together.

Thank you to everyone who participated, volunteered, organized, and helped make this year’s event such a success!

Stronger together—on and off the water. 🩷💙
Paddles up!

P.S. We also had some of our own BWE team members participating in the run, taking on both the 5K and 10K! 💕 Way to go, team!

A little TBT-Throwback Thursday to where it all began. 🩷🐉

In 1996, Dr. Don McKenzie and a small group of courageous women in Vancouver launched Abreast in a Boat—the first breast cancer survivor dragon boat team. What began with one boat has grown into an incredible worldwide community built on strength, connection, hope, and the joy of paddling together.

And Busting With Energy is proud to be part of that history.

Just two years later, in 1998, our own team began paddling here in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. Today, more than 28 years after the movement began, BCS paddlers from around the world continue to come together on the water, carrying forward the spirit that started it all.

This video from Abreast in a Boat is a beautiful reminder of our roots, how far BCS dragon boating has come, and the legacy our team is proud to continue.

What an amazing journey it has been—and what an incredible journey it continues to be.

From one boat in 1996 to a worldwide sisterhood. 🩷

Our time at the Dragon Boat Festival in Aix-les-Bains was truly something special. 🇫🇷

We came together as a team, but left with so much more — new friendships, beautiful memories, countless laughs, and moments we will carry with us for a long time.

Meeting so many wonderful people from different places and sharing the passion, spirit, and joy of dragon boating was an experience we’ll never forget. There is something incredibly special about being surrounded by people who come together with such energy, kindness, and a love for the sport.

And to our amazing team — thank you for making this experience so unforgettable. The laughter, encouragement, teamwork, and friendship made every moment that much more meaningful. ❤️

We may have travelled to Aix-les-Bains to race, but we came home with memories, friendships, and a bond that goes far beyond the finish line.

So grateful for this team, this adventure, and all the wonderful people who made it so special. 🐉❤️🚣‍♀️

Until the next adventure… together, we are stronger. 💕

1000m Race — Final Results 🇫🇷🐉

We weren’t able to capture and record the live broadcast of today’s 1000m race, but we’re happy to share the official final results from Aix-les-Bains, France!

Busting With Energy crossed the finish line in 8:28.40. 🇨🇦

Every race at the 2026 IBCPC Participatory Dragon Boat Festival is about so much more than a finishing time. It’s about connection, strength, tenacity, sisterhood, and the joy of being on the water together.

We are incredibly proud of our team for showing up, paddling with purpose, and representing Busting With Energy and Saskatoon, Saskatchewan in France.

Congratulations to all the BCS teams who took part in today’s 1000m race. What an experience to share the water with breast cancer survivor paddlers from around the world. 🩷

Paddles up, BWE!
WE ARE… BUSTING WITH ENERGY! 🩷💙🇨🇦
