FAQs
What is a duck race?
The duck race is a "race" of little rubber yellow ducks into the SAAC teaching pool. There will be multiple races -- or heats. Each race will have many ducks that will come down a slide landing in the pool. The first 3 ducks that cross over the finish line will win their adoptive parents a prize AND go on to the final race. Volunteer kickers and kids wielding water guns will keep the pool water moving to help the ducks "swim" across the finish line. The suggested donation for the ducks is $5. Each adopted duck is numbered and associated with a donor. Winners don't need to be present but if they want to cheer on the racers and participate in Family Fun Day, they should come!
