Ketchikan, Alaska - The winning ducks are in for the First City
Rotary's 15th Annual Rubber Duck Race held in Ketchikan, Alaska
on the Fourth of July. The payoff was big for Jamie Elkins whose
lucky rubber duck claimed the 1st place prize for him. Elkins'
fast moving little rubber duck earned him a big bundle of cash
in the amount of $2,500.
First City Rotary President
Harry Martin reported there were 3,500 rubber ducks for this
year's 2003 Ididaduck race. Martin reported that all the tickets
were sold raising $35,000.00 for charity. Proceeds of the Annual
Duck Race will be used to install a power door assist at Community
Connections, a picnic shelter at Totem Bight and provide an accessible
beach access trail at Settler's Cove.
