Passing of the Torch

As we open the 2009 Dragon Boat season, there have been changes at Team Xtreme.

As a result of a recent injury and limited availability due to a heavy work schedule, Jeffrey Lee has decided to step down as President of XtremeNY. It was not an easy decision and one that he had been debating for some time. Having held this position for over 5 years, Jeff felt it was the right time for Team Xtreme to benefit from some new ideas and a renewed passion for the sport and the organization.
