Description

Our primary fundraiser, Duck Fest, is an annual event at the beautiful Walnut Springs Park in Seguin, Texas.  The fundraiser includes a rubber duck race, free games for the kids, food booths, and entertainment by the Navarro ISD Jazz Band. Ducks are "adopted" in the community and schools in the weeks leading up to the festival. We offer both individual duck adoptions as well as multi-level packages that include T-shirts and souvenir ducks.  On event day, the "adopted" rubber ducks are dumped into our local creek where they race toward our finish line. The ducks are pre-numbered, and the first 30 ducks to finish win a prize for the person who adopted that duck number. 

We are seeking donations of any dollar value to be awarded as prizes for the winning ducks.  Both gift cards/certificates and products are always well-received by our target audience and are a crucial part of our ability to adopt the ducks to the public.  In other words, a terrific prize list makes our event more popular!!
