ADOPT A DUCK FOR A CHANCE TO WIN
This year’s major prize will be $8,000 in cash, with second and third cash prizes of $5,000 and $2,000 respectively. In addition, major sponsor Delaware North Parks & Resorts, Inc. will provide two vacation packages that include stays and activities at their properties, one at Yellowstone National Park and one at Glacier National Park. Delaware North is the parent company of Estes Park’s Ridgeline Hotel.
Duck adoptions support local Estes Park charitable organizations. For every duck adopted ($22), the charity indicated on the adoption form will receive $19. The 2021 race returned $118,579 to 65 organizations providing non-profit or charitable services in the Estes Valley, and brought the total funds raised in the 33-year history of the event to just under $3 million.
