Join the fun on Saturday, August 22, 11 AM, and watch the Eighth Annual Rubber Duckie Race from the lawn of the Flanders Men’s Club, which is down the access road just east of The Big Duck. This family friendly fundraiser is free and benefits the Friends of The Big Duck, steward of Big Duck Ranch.

For a $5 donation (or 5 for $20), you are assigned a number that is on one of the rubber duckies that are launched into Reeves Bay at Noon sharp. Prizes will be awarded for first, second, third and last place. You do not need to be present to win.

Due to the health crisis, masks and social distancing are required. Homemade masks with duck themes are encouraged. The child with the best one will win a prize. Attendance that day is limited to 100. Raindate: Sunday, August 23, 11 AM.
