Rubber Duck Racing Hits Its Target

20241006_132111

Saturday the 28 September members and friends gathered for the second Rubber Duck Racing event. The target to raise 1000€. We are pleased to announce that the target was met due to the generosity of those enjoying the racing and the afternoon tea. We also received donations from those who unfortunately could not attend. The wind gave the ducks some difficulties but they battled through. After 7 heats, 2 semi finals and the final, the winning owner was Carol Bradshaw a visitor from the UK. I am sure she will enjoy the bottle of Piper Heidseick champagne for first place presented by our President Jim Kennedy.

Our second place winner was shy but Sally Turner a new friend of Rotary accepted her third place bottle of wine again from Jim. Thanks go to all members, friends and donors who supported the event. See you again next year.
