On Saturday, June 14, hundreds of ducks were sold and raced down the river, making for a fun and successful community event. We are truly grateful for everyone who participated and supported this fundraiser.

After prize payouts and expenses, the event raised $4,000, which will go directly toward supporting the Manchester community.

We also extend our sincere thanks to the Town of Manchester Mini Grant for helping to fund and offset the costs of this local project.

A special thank you to the dedicated girls and boys of Scout Troop 25 for their hard work in setting up and taking down the stream race course. Their efforts helped make the day run smoothly and safely for all.

Thank you to all who helped & participated to make this event a success!
