Want a chance to win $1000?

Adopt a duck for just $5 each. There’s no limit to how many you can adopt, and every duck increases your chance to win.

How it works:

On race day, all adopted ducks will be released into the stream. The first duck to cross the finish line wins the $1000 prize.

Who can participate?

Anyone, anywhere. Whether you're in Plant City or across the country, you can adopt ducks and watch the race from home. We'll be streaming the event live so your friends and family can join the excitement from anywhere.

All proceeds support the mission of Historic Downtown Plant City—so while you’re having fun, you’re also making a difference.
