Title: And the ducky race winners are.......
Post by: katrinaantonovich on June 06, 2009, 04:15:12 PM

After a great community day - the 17th annual ducky race had a it's longest lasting race, 2 hours and 9 minutes (usually the race is about 45 minutes.) Duck 426, had a strong lead for most of the race, only to almost sink and stall out about 50 yards from the finish, this Duck 334 then took the lead and looked like it would be the big winner but in the last 10 feet of the race, three ducks came on strong - with Duck  419 taking 1st, Duck 288 taking second and Duck 17 taking 3rd. (unofficial - I don't have my sheet with me)

and winning the golden trophy with the most businesses sales is THE FAIRFAX PHARMACY! they will be able keep the coveted golden duck trophy for the next year.
Second place and third place in ducky sales race was the foothills bakery and Rainville's.

Thank you everyone for your support!

I just saw # 434 coming under the bridge.

Right next to mine.

Wasn't that Chris Santee I saw with a magic marker in the water by the bridge.  I guess I was mistaken right Chris?

Not me, not my Sharpie
and there's no truth to the rumor my duckys were retreived greased with Vaseline.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
