Our Name and Logo





 
 

The team's founder, Jayne Coe, was diagnosed with Breast Cancer in September 2004, and during chemotherapy treatment her mother gave her a magazine article about Dragons Abreast Australia.  Jayne loved the idea, and after her second chemotherapy session, she joined the Redcliffe Dragon Boat Racing Club and began paddling with them, as their first Breast Cancer survivor member.

 



 
 
In May 2005, it was decided it was time to create a Breast Cancer Survivor team as part of the club. Jayne chose the name 'Pink Snapdragons' for something pretty and feminine for herself and for future members to really feel like women. Pink snapdragons flowers, which are featured on our club banner, are also strong and long lasting.
