Author: Share:

New Event is slated for May 10 at Riverwalk in Wellsville

WELLSVILLE, NY – Show your support for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities by purchasing a duck to compete in the 1st Annual Feathered Friends Duck Derby fundraiser happening May 10th (11am) at Riverwalk Plaza, Wellsville.

Join us on the bank of the Genesee River where we will release the quackin’ and watch them race down the river. Watch the ducks race virtually on the Arc Allegany-Steuben’s Facebook page (www.facebook.com/thearcas.org) or in person at Riverwalk Plaza.

The first three quackers to finish the race will score their adoptive owners $500, $250, and $100! There will also be 10 Lucky Ducks drawn from the flock to receive raffle prizes.

For $5, participants can buy a numbered yellow duck to enter in the race. Ticket numbers will correspond to numbered ducks launched from the bank of the Genesee River. Ducks can be purchased online at: https://events.eventgroove.com/event/Feathered-Friends-Duck-Derby-86831

Winners will be announced. You do not have to be present to win – your duck(s) will represent you. All proceeds benefit the Friends of Allegany Arc Foundation.

Thank you to our event sponsors Buffalo Paper & Twine, Upstate Pharmacy, and Chudy Paper. Sponsorship opportunities are still available. Contact Myriah Perry at 607-622-1893 or myriah.perry@thearcas.org for more information.
