Lions Club Rubber Duck Race Watch hundreds of yellow rubber ducks race a quarter mile down Clear Creek from the Billy Drew Bridge, past Ford St. Bridge to Vanover Park!
To win, you gotta have a duck. Place your bet (two bucks, one duck) on your choice of hundreds of rubber ducks by stopping by the Sons of the American Legion tent in Parfet Park any time during Buffalo Bill Days. Then take a position along Clear Creek between the starting line (near 10th and Illinois Streets) and Vanover Park to cheer for your duck as he (or she - it's hard to tell) shoots the rapids in the Buffalo Bill Days Duck Race. Winning ducks will earn prizes for their backers.
