The Sierra Nevada Women's Active 20-30 Club of Douglas County is
sponsoring this year's Carson Valley Duck Derby, previously Wacky
Waddler's Wiver Wace, hosted by the Carson Valley Community Food Closet.
The event is set for June 10 in the Lampe Park creek in Gardnerville. The community race will begin at 1 p.m., followed by the business class race at 2 p.m. and the service clubs/churches race at 3 p.m. The races coincide with the annual Carson Valley Days hosted by the Carson Valley Men's Active 20-30 Club.
Single Duck - $5 donation, one racing duck will be adopted in your name and entered into the derby.
Quack Pack - $20 donation, five ducklings to be entered into the derby for an increased chance to win.
Flock - $50 donation gets you 13 ducks entered in the derby.
Ducks can be purchased online at www.sierranv2030.org or at Scolari's Food and Drug in Gardnerville.
Prizes from the duck race include a grill from Minden Grill, glider ride, a ski/snowboard season lease package from CV Sports, Reno Aces tickets, Wild Island tickets and many more.
The 20-30 club raises funds via a variety of events throughout the year, and the Carson Valley Duck Derby is now their largest fundraiser.
The organization gives back to the local community through a variety of other organizations and events including Backpack Buddies, The Carson Valley Community Food Closet, Kids & Horses and many more. The funds raised at the Carson Valley Duck Derby goes to their largest “give back” event, the children's shopping spree in August.
“We are continually in need of fundraising to support our many projects which is why we are so excited about the Carson Valley Duck Derby,” member Jessie Wetzel said. “We are very appreciative of your support and hope you can join us at Carson Valley Days at the starting line to watch your duck race.”
