Rotary Club of the Tarrytowns’ Rubber Duck Derby Celebrates 15 Years as Beloved Community Fundraiser
On race day, hundreds of ducks will swim to the finish line in a series of heats. Each heat has a winner and takes home a cash prize. In between races community members are invited to stroll the scenic park visiting dozens of organizations hosting tables filled with information, kids’ activities, treats, food and beverages for sale, games and much more.
Rubber ducks are available for “adoption” on the Rotary Club’s website at
(tarrytownrotary.org/buy-a-duck) and on the day of the event. Rubber Ducks may be adopted individually ($10), as a six quack (6 for $50), or a “tub o’ ducks” (13 ducks for $100). The more ducks you buy, the greater your chances of winning. The best part of all is that every duck adopted is a direct contribution to supporting local community, as all proceeds go directly back to the community in the form of scholarships and grants.
This year’s 15th anniversary is supported by a long list of local sponsors, whom without their support this event couldn’t happen. The Rotary Club is especially grateful to 2022’s Presenting Sponsors Phelps Hospital Northwell Health and Kendal on Hudson.
