You could win some money for a local non-profit and win some cash yourself if your duck wins.

Get All the Details on the Rubber Duck Race Below

The Rotary Club of Southwest Wichita Falls is running an awesome promotion right now. You can purchase rubber ducks that will race against each other in the lazy river at Castaway Cove Waterpark. The cool thing is that if your duck wins, you get money, and a local non profit gets money as well.

You purchase a duck for $20. Select what non-profit you would like to help out. $10 will go to the Rotary Club of Southwest Wichita Falls and the other $10 will go towards the non profit of your choice. Then if your duck wins, you and your non-profit you chose can win more.

  • First Place: $2500 ($1,250 for you, $1,250 for your nonprofit)
  • Second Place: $500 ($250 for you, $250 for your nonprofit)
  • Third Place: $250 ($125 for you, $125 for your nonprofit)
  • Dead Duck Last: $250 ($125 for you, $125 for your nonprofit)

One of the few times where finishing dead last is actually not that bad.
