A team of 20 hardy employees - including managing director Keith Austin - will be competing in the annual Chester Charity Dragon Boat Festival on June 13.
The event will see EMS take to the River Dee in Chester in a colourful, Chinese-style longboat. The team will be competing against more than 25 other crews, all intent on being crowned 2010 Dragon Boat Champions.
EMS selected the British Heart Foundation as its designated charity as it works with the organisation on a variety of awareness roadshows and marketing campaigns.
Keith Austin at EMS said: “We had so much fun taking part in last year’s dragon boat race, that we couldn’t resist taking up the challenge again.
“We’re hoping to improve on last year’s performance, which saw us finish eighth overall, while raising hundreds of pounds to support the vital work of the British Heart Foundation.”
The event, now in its sixth year, has grown steadily from just nine competing teams to nearly thirty, and has become one of the largest dragon boat events in the UK.
