The Southside SPCA is a proud partner of The United Way of Prince Edward County, and we are grateful for the generous support we receive through donors to the United Way. So, we are super-excited to help promote The Great Farmville Duck Derby! The Derby will take place at the Heart of Virginia Festival on May 5, 5:00 PM at Farmville’s Riverside Park.
You can adopt a duck for the race for only $5.00 and then watch the little ducks race down the Appomattox River. A Quack Pack of 6 ducks is only $25 and you can increase your winning chances by adopting 25 ducks for $100! The first place duck wins $1000. Second and third place ducks win $500 and $250, respectively. You don’t have to be present to win.
So, come on out to the Heart of Virginia Festival on May 5 and stop by the Southside SPCA booth for some fun and games. Then head down to Riverside Park at 5:00 PM for the great Duck Derby!
All proceeds from the Duck Derby benefit the partners of the United Way of Prince Edward County, including the Southside SPCA! To adopt a duck for the great race, contact Mark Fink at markfink39@gmail.com, or stop in any of these Farmville area locations: The Fishin’ Pig, Uptown Coffee Shop, Citizens Bank & Trust, and the Farmville Area Chamber of Commerce. Hurry! Duck adoptions end April 16! We hope to see you at the Derby!
