More ducks are coming to race for the 3rd Annual Incredible Duck Race presented by the Kiwanis Club of Tampa! On Saturday, August 24th, a total of 15,000 ducks will race down Hillsborough River in front of Curtis Hixon Park.

All proceeds will benefit local children's programs and charities to provide scholarships, build a reading room in Boys & Girls Clubs, build residential accessibility ramps and more! It's not too late to adopt a single duck for $5 or a Flock of ducks (25 for $100) at Tampa Duck Race.

The first lucky duck to cross the finish line will win $5,000 and 2nd & 3rd place will win cash prizes as well! If you're in the Tampa area, check out the festivities which will include family-friendly games, food, and entertainment. You don't have to be present to win so you can still adopt a duck, help a child and enter for a chance to win cash!
