The Lakeside Norway boat dock at 61 Lake Road is where the vessel of the Maine Dragon Boat Club calls home. The club held its final paddle of the season Saturday while teaming up with Cancer Resource Center of Western Maine to promote breast cancer awareness. Roughly a dozen women donning pink scarves, boas, leis, fleeces and other flourishes signaling breast cancer awareness attended the event. For her rehabilitation from cancer surgery and treatment, Sarah Cummings has spent most of her time in the water rather than on it, she said. Swimming has been therapeutic, she said, but added that she’s also a fan of paddling now. “I can see how this would be good too.”
