Duck Derby!

Join the Rutland County Humane Society (RCHS) for our annual Duck Derby to raise needed funds for the homeless animals in Rutland County. On Wednesday, September 12 at 6:30 pm, adopted (plastic) ducks will be launched into the stream at the Pittsford Recreation Area in Pittsford. The first 4 ducks to reach the finish line win cash prizes. We’ll also have a cash prize for the last duck! Ducks are available for adoption at the RCHS shelter in Pittsford or you can download the information here.  You can adopt a single duck for $3, a Quack-Pack (4 ducks) for $10 or a 6-Quack (6 ducks) for $15. Ducks can be adopted at the event, as well. You do not need to be present to win, but if you want to, come on down and cheer on your ducks! While you’re there enjoy a frozen treat at our ice cream social! Dogs on leash are welcome to enjoy the fun, too, and while supplies last frozen canine treats will be available for them as well! Mark your calendars and join us for an enjoyable evening of racing ducks and ice cream treats! For more information contact the RCHS Business Office at 483.9171.
