You will never actually touch or handle your duck. We keep those safe. Just retain the email or your hard copy ticket with your duck number(s)!

On Race Day, all adopted ducks will be dropped into the Wepawaug River on the south side of New Haven Avenue in downtown Milford. That’s just west of the public library and just east of SBC restaurant.

The river will carry the ducks approximately 100 meters to the finishing chute, just beneath the pedestrian bridge above the river. If your duck enters the chute first, you win prize #1! If your duck enters second, you win prize #2, and so on until all prizes have been awarded. (Just retain your email or your hard copy ticket with your duck adoption number(s)!

You do not need to be present to win, but watching this great event is loads of fun, especially with the addition of the beautiful Founders’ Walk!

You can pick up your prize winnings on Race Day, so come on down and join us! If, however, you cannot make Race Day, you will be notified of your win and will be able to pick up your prize(s) from the United Way of Milford, 20 Evergreen Avenue Milford, CT, 06460.
