S.U.C.C.E.S.S. 50th Anniversary Walk with the Dragon celebration returns to Stanley Park July 9

Vancouver, BC – S.U.C.C.E.S.S. is ready to kick off summer and celebrate our 50th anniversary year with the launch of our Walk with the Dragon community event in July. We welcome media to join us at Lumbermen’s Arch on Sunday, July 9 at 8:30 a.m. for the Opening Ceremonies and to cover the event.

Walk with the Dragon historically draws several thousand participants and is our largest community-based fundraising event, held in Stanley Park since 1986. Proceeds go directly to support essential S.U.C.C.E.S.S. programs for families, youth, women, and seniors.

“This is such a joyful community event, said S.U.C.C.E.S.S. CEO Queenie Choo. “It fills me with real pride each year to see all of our incredible community members coming together to enjoy fresh air, exercise and fun, as they lend their support to our cause and help us continue to assist people in need.”

The event is led by the longest Dragon in North America – the 100-foot long S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Dragon is carried by 40 martial artists who lead walkers and teams to participate in the three- or seven-kilometre routes through the park. Following the walk, our family-friendly fairgrounds are open to the public, featuring live music, entertainment, activities, giveaways, prizes, carnival games and photo booths.

“We are deeply grateful for all the support from our sponsors and long term supporters for this signature fundraising event,” said S.U.C.C.E.S.S. Foundation Board Chair Jason Lam.

We invite you to learn more, to register to walk as an individual or team, and to make a donation by visiting our Walk with the Dragon Event Platform at https://wwtd.akaraisin.com/ui/2023walk.
