Empire Dragons NYC is a founder and proud supporter of Guardians of Flushing Bay. Back in 2012, members of the Empire Dragons NYC, New York’s first breast cancer dragon boat team, were shocked and appalled by the state of water quality in Flushing Bay. Empire took action by participating in water quality testing for the Bay, initiating oyster gardening with Billion Oyster Project, and ultimately by founding the Guardians of Flushing Bay in partnership with other dragon boat teams on the Bay. We are now proud to be participating in raising funds for Guardians which has become an important environmental justice organization in NYC. Please support the important work of the Guardians and give generously to help clean and preserve Flushing Bay. Feel free to post/re-post on social media.
