The Decatur Morgan Hospital Foundation Dragon Boat Race & Festival is set to kick off Saturday morning .

The 40 competing teams are expected to raise a combined total of at least $100,000 for the hospital.

Last year's event raised more than $1.2 million over the past 12 years of the event.

Palmer said he always encourages new rowers to perfect their timing before hitting the water. “It’s about watching the person in front of you and doing what they do,” Palmer said. “The key is to put your best people up front — everyone behind them will mimic their stroke. I always say to plan for a minute and 20 seconds because you’re going to give it all you’ve got for a minute and 20 seconds .”.
