HANOVER — On Saturday, June 10, at Malapardis Park, the Hanover Rotary Club will be hosting its 31st Annual Duck Race at 3:00 p.m.
The fun and games will begin at 1:00 p.m., and the race will start at 3:00 p.m. This year’s activities include face painting, music, games, food, and ice cream.
To participate in the race, tickets are available for $10.00 each. Each ticket corresponds to one duck entry into the pond. If you’re interested in purchasing tickets, you can do so by emailing HanoverRotaryFundraiser@gmail.com.
This year, there are more than 40 prizes, including a $2,000 American Express gift card as the grand prize. Other prizes include AirPods and tickets to New York Yankees, New York Mets, and New York Giants tickets.
The funds generated from the Duck Race are allocated to support numerous local service projects organized by the Hanover Rotary Club. Some of these initiatives include the Gift of Life program, which facilitates heart operations for children, support for youth sports, vocational scholarships at Whippany Park High School, and the provision of dictionaries to all third-grade students in Hanover and East Hanover.
