ROSWELL -- Keep Roswell Beautiful (KRB) will conduct the fourth annual Great Duck Race after the Rivers Alive Clean-up and Festival Saturday, Sept. 27, at 12:45 p.m. Some 1,000 plastic ducks will be released in Big Creek beginning at the footbridge on Oxbo Road.
The first place duck wins $100 cash and second place is $50.
The annual duck race is a fund raising opportunity for KRB, which recently supported the purchase of the Earth Balloon – an inflatable classroom used for environmental education purposes. Ducks can be rented for $3 each or three for $5. Ducks can be rented at the Rivers Alive event and in the Environmental/Public Works Department at City Hall, 38 Hill St., Suite 235.
