Duck Race

Brookside Park
Our annual Duck Race will be held on Sunday, May 4, 2008 on Harbor Brook at Brookside Park, located at Broad Street and Bunker Avenue.

In conjunction with the Duck Race a Fishing Derby will be held at Baldwin's Pond on May 4 from 9:00 am until noon for children up to 12 years of age. Registration will begin at 8:30 with fishing derby to start at 9:00. All children 12 years of age and younger who register will be given a voucher for food and a soft drink. Winners will be announced in many categories and prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the Fish Derby.

Duck Race activities include a city wide coloring contest for children of grammar school age. Past years have brought over 2,500 entries.

Our Duck Race is entertainment for the whole family. Over 2,000 rubber ducks are released at one time to tear down to a finish line where winners are announced and prizes awarded.
