Duck Race Olympics

Duck Race Olympics on Sunday, 4 August 2024

Great fun on the Pentewan Trail river with some 444 ducks swimming downstream competing for the finishing line! Huge thanks to the Sea Cadets for lending their plastic ducks and to everyone who kindly ‘bought a duck’ which has allowed us to raise £800, plus donations, for the Presidents’ charities, The Cornwall Women’s Centre, The Mermaid Centre and St Petrocs.
Great team work from our club members and supporters to run the event either from in the river or from dry land. Some even unexpectedly got their feet wet, retrieving the pesky ducks that tried to get away!
Prize winners have been contacted.
