After a long migration, the quacks are back for the 2018 Ducky Derby, benefiting the Children’s Museum of the Brazos Valley. The rubber duckies will launch from the tower at Lake Walk Town Center to kick-off the Atlas Glow Run on Saturday, May 5. Participants can adopt a ducky for a chance to win fabulous prizes — including free Chick-Fil-A for a year, a Stay-Cation at The Stella Hotel, and the grand prize: a Wolf RX50 Scooter from Scoots Aggieland.
The Ducky Derby is in partnership with the Atlas Glow Run and Glow Night at Lake Walk. Registration and packet pick-up for the race begins at 6pm, the Ducky Derby will begin at 8pm, and the Atlas Glow Run will commence right after. To adopt a duck, stop by the Museum, call (979) 779-5437, or visit www.cmbv.org. It coasts $10 to adopt one duck, $50 to adopt a Six-Quack of six ducks, or $100 to adopt a Quackers Dozen of 13 ducks. You do not need to be present at the event to win.
