Webster Comfort Care hosts 4th annual Duck Derby

27 Apr

You’re gonna want to get your ducks in a row for this fun family event coming up in just a few weeks, to benefit Webster Comfort Care Home.

Webster Comfort Care Home’s fourth annual Duck Derby will take place Saturday May 18 at the Webster Park Beeches Pavilion.

The idea is simple: participants purchase rubber duckies for $10 each, and each has a number on it. At the appointed time, the ducks are dumped into Mill Creek, where they leisurely float down towards the lake. The “owners” of the first three ducks to cross the finish line win cash prizes.

Since the ducks like to take their time, there’ll be games, prizes, snacks and storytime at 10:15 to entertain while you wait. And you don’t have to be present to win. 

The race will begin at the Webster Park Beeches Pavilion at 10 a.m. on Saturday May 18 and there’s plenty of parking. Cost for a single duck is $10, a “quack pack” of 6 ducks is $50 and a flock of 12 ducks is $100. Proceeds from the event directly benefit Webster Comfort Care to support their mission to provide end-of-life care to residents of Webster and the surrounding communities.

For more information or to purchase ducks, visit webstercomfortcare.org or call 585-872-5290. Payment is accepted by cash, check or credit card, and PayPal online. Tickets are available now.
