Milford Rotary Duck Race and Kids' Events

Milford, Lyons and Lakes Rotary Duck race is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 18 in Pettibone Creek at Milford's Central Park. 

Kids' activities precede the race beginning at 11 a.m. The race itself starts at 2 p.m.

This is a family event with thousands of yellow ducks racing down Pettibone Creek...who will be the first to hit the finish line? Buy a duck, and you could win a fabulous prize!

All proceeds go to local charities and service projects including college scholarships for Huron Valley Schools graduates, YMCA, Community Sharing, and dictionaries for all graduating fifth graders in Huron Valley Schools.

Numbered raffle tickets are sold that correspond to a rubber duck that will bear the same number. The ducks are then dumped from a front end loader into Pettibone Creek.

The ducks will race down the creek under the bridge and funnel to a spot where only one duck can squeeze through. The first duck through the funnel wins.

Buy your ducks for the race now here; various packages are available.
