Rubber ducky pics

Someone mentioned that they'd like to see pics of the Rubber Ducky Derby. My sister took pictures but hasn't sent them to me yet, so I pulled these off the Special Olympic Illinois site. As silly as it seems, it was fun to watch. It is a brilliant way to raise funds and not only do they do duck races, they also do turtles. There is a site that helps set up this type of fundraiser all over the country and there are quite a few scheduled. Go to Duck Race for more information on a race near you. If you want to know more about setting up a race, click the "game home" button at the top of the page.
