The third annual Granby Grange Rubber Duck Race, sponsored by Lincoln Tech, was held on May 10 at Salmon Brook Park and was a tremendous success. With beautiful cold weather and high spirits, the event drew a lively crowd and community participation. Over $1,400 in prizes were awarded to the top 16 rubber duck winners and the last place winner.
Nearly 700 rubber ducks were sponsored for this year’s race, making it the biggest yet. Attendees of all ages enjoyed the festive atmosphere, cheering on their ducks as they were chosen in a friendly (often funny!) competition.
Tammy Savoie won first place, with Sue Pennington in second and Mitzy W. in third. Honorable mention for the last duck went to Karen Dymersky.
Granby Grange thanks the volunteers, participants/donors and Lincoln Tech for their generous sponsorship. Proceeds from the event support the Grange’s community service projects and local initiatives.
