Description

The CCCC Sertoma Club will be hosting the 22nd annual Sertoma Duck Race this summer on the Finley River in Ozark, Missouri. The two-day festival includes a huge kids zone with rides and inflatables, a balloon glow, a BBQ competition, a pie eating contest, a 5K race and pancake breakfast, live bands, a beer garden, and a car show, and our main event at 7:30 pm on June 17, 2023 as the “adopted” rubber ducks are released in a spirited race down the river toward the finish line! The first 15 ducks to cross the finish will win, respectively, a 2023 Chevrolet Silverado, a $2000 Texas Roadhouse Gift Card,  $1,000 gas card to Signal Gas, and fourth through fifteenth place will win assorted baskets full of these donated items. We expect 15-20 thousand people in attendance. 

Christian County Children’s Charities Sertoma Club raises funds for local children’s charities including Care To Learn which provides health, hunger and hygiene needs for school age children, Least Of These Food Pantry and Children’s Smile Center which provides dental care to children in need.
