Join Daybreak Rotarians and cheer on your duck in the annual fundraising event. There will be events for kids, bbq, entertainment, 50/50 draws and of course the race of the year on the river. The ducks will be dumped in the river at the logging bridge at Duncan Bay Rd around 1pm and it takes 30 minutes or so for the ducks to arrive at the finish line.
