Mid-Columbia Duck Race

Wednesday, August 20th, 2008

It’s time for the Great Mid-Columbia Duck Race again!  Once a year 40,000 little rubber duckies are dumped from a cargo container into the Columbia River in the hopes of winning fantastic prizes.  The race is put on by the Tri-Cities Rotary clubs.  The money raised during this race benefits local charities, so you can’t go wrong there.  As a member of Richland Rotary I am a ducky adoption counselor as well as help set up the race.  This is a community event that you can definately get behind.
