Re: fundraising--duck race
We have never run one, but we did build the launch platform for the rubber duck regatta to benefit a local counseling center. That one was done on a pond, with the fire department spraying the surface to keep a current going and a couple of kayakers pushing the strays back into the main mass of ducks. The ducks were, I believe, originally from Oriental Trading Company. They can be reused from year to year. There were something like 7500 ducks on the launch platform before they were released. It was pretty cool looking. When they did it on the river I know it took a little more time to gather up all the ducks.
