WHEN IS THE RACE SCHEDULED? June 13th  2009 race time approx. 1p.m.

WHERE WILL THE RACE BE HELD? The ducks will race in the Erie Canal in the Village of Newark, NY., starting from the Main Street Bridge.

WHO IS CONDUCTING THE RACE?  The Newark Volunteer Fire Department Assoc. Inc..

WHY ARE WE HOLDING IT?  Raise funds for The Newark Firefighters. The Village of Newark is served by 100% Volunteers

HOW DOES IT WORK? People donate $5 to adopt a duck. They receive numbered tickets matched to their ducks. On race day, we release the numbered ducks into our race site on the Erie Canal, and the first duck to cross the downstream finish line wins the grand prize of $1000.00 for the person who adopted it. Several other prizes will include fabulous items from local merchants and sponsors. You do not have to be present to win any of the several prizes we will be there for you.

WHY PLASTIC DUCKS? The bathtub toys provide a colorful and fun focus for the event. Plus we can retrieve them and use again next year if this year is a successful event. Duck races have raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for charities around the world.

HOW CAN I ADOPT A DUCK, HELP SPONSOR THE RACE, OR GET MORE INFORMATION? For more information and details on adopting a duck or ducks, see or call any Volunteer Firefighter in the Village of Newark.
