Due to the COVID-19 Pandemic we have had to postpone our event. New date is confirmed: August 15, 2020 @ Gyro Park in Penticton. All tickets sold with the May 2nd date will be eligible to win!
If for some reason we are not able to hold a public event on August 15th due to ongoing physical distancing requirements, we will hold a live-streamed draw rather than a duck drop.

This year we are changing the look of our Rubber Duck event. Instead of a race down the Penticton Channel, we will be having a ‘DROP’ at Gyro Park in Penticton.
Stand Up for Charity – Comedy Night
Waters Running Too Fast For Ducks
Recent storms and increased spring run-off made the current condition of the Penticton Channel unsafe for ‘Duck Retrieval’. We could not take the chance of any of our volunteers or members being injured or swept-away, so we chose not to do the duck drop. Instead we entered all the sold duck numbers in a bucket and had an ‘old-fashioned’ raffle!
Congratulations to our winners and thank you again to Gateway Casinos and Entertainment (Cascades Casino Penticton), the Penticton Indian Band, all the youth groups who participated in selling tickets and everyone who bought a ticket.
Over $11,000 was donated back into our local communities from this event.
