Yes, it’s time! The Great Drake Park Duck Race kicks off June 29, with ticket sales again being sold in-person as well as online. Mid Oregon Credit Union is again one of the title sponsors under the “Credit Unions Working Together” banner.

Tickets Sold In Person & Online

Tickets for the Duck Race go on sale June 29. This year marks the 33rd consecutive year of local Rotary clubs, businesses and community members raising much-needed funds for local non-profit organizations. The Duck Race has raised nearly $2 million since it began in the late 1980s.

The Duck Race Back On September 11

After a two-year hiatus, the ducks are back and eager to race down the river on September 11, although ticket sales for the Duck Race kicks off June 29. This year we will be selling tickets in person as well as online! Duck race raffle tickets are $5 and can be purchased at First Community, Mid Oregon, OnPoint, and SELCO Credit Union or online at www.theduckrace.com. Local Rotarians and the Duck mascot will also be out in the community promoting ticket sales throughout the summer. Look for them at familiar venues such as Newport Avenue Market.

Twenty prizes with total value over $18,000 will be raffled, including the Grand Prize of $5,000 cash! Additional prizes include a Hoodoo Ski Area season family pass, diamond earrings from Saxon’s Fine Jewelers, and much more.
