Get Ready for a Quacktastic Event!

 This year, approximately 3,000 rubber racing ducks are gearing up to tumble, splash, bob, and slosh down the Yantic River, racing their way to the finish line for a chance to win big!
​
Adopt a Duck: For just $5, you can adopt your very own rubber racing duck! Your adoption not only enters you into the race but also supports a good cause. Tickets are on sale now!

Cheer on Your Duck on Saturday, May 30th (Rain Date:  June 6).
​Join us at the riverbank to cheer on your adopted duck as it races to victory. Bring your friends and family for a day filled with laughter, community spirit, and the joy of friendly competition.

Supporting a Worthy Cause: This year, the ticket proceeds from The Great Duck Race will go towards supporting the NORWICH BULLY BUSTERS & GNACC. Your participation ensures that the fun we have together also contributes to the well-being of our local community.
