“This year, we’re anticipating 3,000 people, if not more,” President-Elect for Cross Timbers Rotary, Jim Moll predicted. Each rubber duckie entered in the race is “adopted,” or purchased. Every adoption supports the Cross Timbers Rotary Club’s efforts to benefit our local community’s non-profits and youth organizations. “Anyone at least 18 years old can adopt a duck,” Jim explained. “Parents can adopt on behalf of their child. That said, last year a six-year-old won first prize!” One duck can be adopted for only $5, but to increase your chances of winning, there are plenty of options for purchasing: Bundle of Ducks: 6 for $25 Flock of Ducks: 12 for $50 Brood of Ducks: 24 for $100 Flight of Ducks: 50 for $200 Dynasty of Ducks: 125 for $500 www.LiveLocalMagazines.com
