I am a member of a Facebook group of local photographers. I went out yesterday to the Rotary Club's annual Duck Dash! People purchase tickets on a rubber duckie. Each ticket represents one duckie. They are all released into Lily Creek at once and the winner of the race, wins the prize!! Proceeds all go to charitable organizations! Over 13,000 duckies were sold this year, [I think at $5 each!!]

Waiting for the Race to begin
Release the DUCKIES -- all 13,000 of them!
The firemen helped the duckies along with their hose!
Go DUCKIES, GO!
Making sure no duckies get left behind
Git along, little Duckies
