3rd Annual Denton Duck Derby June 2, 2012

Since September 18, 2010 The Denton Parks Foundation has hosted the Denton Duck Derby at the Denton Water Works Park.

The 2nd Annual Denton Duck Derby was held on June 4, 2011. The Duck Derby raises money to help support park enhancements and recreation programs of Denton and encourage participation in those programs through scholarships.

The 3rd Annual Denton Duck Derby will be held June 2, 2012.

Duck Derbys all over the country have proven to be a great way to draw the community together for a fun event and to raise money for a good cause. Businesses can participate as sponsors and underwriters of the Denton Duck Derby. Individuals can adopt ducks for participation in two races, a kids race and an adults race. Individually numbered rubber ducks will be dumped into the continuous river at the Denton Water Works Park. The first ducks to cross the finish line will win prizes for their lucky adopted owners.

During the 2nd Annual Denton Duck Derby, the ducks  followed the course of the Continous River at the Denton Water Works Park. Prizes were awarded to the top finishing ducks as well as additional prizes to randomly selected ducks in both races. Lucky Ducks, sponsored by Ramey King Insurance and the Denton Parks Foundation, which finish in 13th place in each race had the chance to win $50,000 in the adult race or a $20,000 college education in the kids race.
