How the Duck Race Works:
Each of our Yellow Ducks has a unique number. The tickets numbers match the duck numbers. Buying the ticket backs that duck to win the race.
When the race starts, all bought ducks are launched into the river.
The ducks that reach the finish line are the winners.
Hang on to your ticket for proof of purchase.
Each Duck Ticket Costs £2.
All proceeds go towards supporting local charities.
First Prize: £200
Second Prize: £100
Third Prize: £75
4th, 5th, 6th Prizes: £50
On Race Day itself – tickets will only be sold at the Riverside Hotel and near New Brook St Bridge – sales will cease at 2pm so that the final ducks can be added into the starting field.
Winners will be announced on the day, and will be published in the Gazette and will be published on the Rotary Club website. All prizes will be paid by Cheque.
* Ducks are available to buy on the day until 2pm from New Brook Street Bridge or The Riverside Hotel, the race starts at 2.30pm on the River Wharfe.
