About PINK PHURREE BCS Dragon Boat Team
PINK PHURREE, a 501c(3) non-profit organization, is a year round dragon boat team of breast cancer survivors. PINK PHURREE was formed by the original team of the Draggin’ Queens, which participated in the 2005 October Regatta of the Texas Dragon Boat Regatta. In 2004, Dr. Yang, a radiation oncologist, with Bayshore Medical was riding his bicycle and noticed some unusual activities taking place in the bay in Clear Lake. He decided to investigate and found it was the Texas Dragon Boat Regatta. Upon learning more of this unusual event, he learnt that there were breast cancer survivor teams in Canada. He thought, why not Texas, as he treats breast cancer survivors. He teamed up with Bayshore Medical Physical Therapy Department and Dr. Haq to start a team.
