Rockland Duck Derby

A few photos from the Derby. 1st place winner ($1000)-Cheryl Mallon, 2nd place winner ($750) Kevin Kern-Chair, Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation) and 3rd place winner ($500)-Senator Bill Weber. Thank you to Kevin and Senator Weber who donated their winnings back to the charities.

We are down to the wire. Less than two days till D-day (Derby Day). For all of you who said, "I have time to buy some ducks.", the time is now! So close to 4000 ducks sold. Help us get there.

The derby will only be cancelled if there is thunder and lightening. After all, ducks love the rain.

Go to rocklandduckderby.org to get your ducks.

Thank you to all of the volunteers who helped to tag the ducks today! Much thanks to Abbey Ice & Spring Water Co for accepting delivery of the ducks, bringing them to Germonds Pool and getting them shipped to their next race. Thousands of ducks are waiting to jump into the pool & race to the finish line on 8/18 at 9:30AM.

Not much time left to purchase your ducks and have a chance to win cash prizes with the first place finisher getting a chance to win $1,000,000. You gotta be in it to win it. Go to rocklandduckderby.org to purchase your ducks or visit us at our table tomorrow between 9a-3p in front of Nyack Fresh Market.

On Thurs. Aug 15th we are hosting our last in-person tables where you can purchase duck entries. We will be in front of Nyack Fresh (on farmer's market day) from 8:30-3 followed by the Rockland Business Association BBQ at Patriot Lounge. (Make sure to sign up if you haven't done so.) If you can't buy your ducks in person, go to rocklandduckderby.org

Only six more days to purchase your duck entries. Ideally, we would like to get to 5000 ducks sold but first we need to get to 4000. You can make that happen by going to rocklandduckderby.org and purchasing your ducks. If you could then share this post with your friends, family, neighbors and colleagues, we could get to our goal.
Remember, you need not be present to win. We will call you if you are not there.

Thank you to everyone who got us past the 3000 mark. If we are going to make it to 5000 ducks racing then we need you to go to rocklandduckderby.org now and purchase your ducks today. Please remember there will be no duck sales on derby day. On derby day we will be selling duck swag (t-shirts, stuffed ducks, inflatable duck).

When you enter ducks in the derby, you support 4 local charities- Samaritan Hospital Suffern, NY, Jawonio, Meals on Wheels Programs & Services of Rockland and The Rockland Community Foundation

This day looks like it is going to be one for ducks. We are going to hope the weather holds out for us and we will give it our best shot and host a table for duck sales at Shoprite Pearl River starting at 10AM. We need to sell 115 ducks in order to get to the 3000 mark and hold our million dollar duck contest. Would love to get to 5000 by race day (8/18).
