Tampa's Rubber Duck Race: Fun & Fundraising

0:00It's April 6th. This is Tampa Bay News today, powered by AI. The Kiwanis Club of Tampa is firing up their 10th annual rubber duck race this Saturday, April 18th, at Curtis Hickson Park. They're unleashing 12,000 bright yellow ducks into the riverfront for a wild dash to the finish. The top three ducks score big. First place grabs $5,000, second takes home $1,000, and third pockets $500. It's all about that splashy competition down the water. Months from duck adoptions and entries flow straight to Kiwanis programs supporting kids across the Tampa Bay area, from education to community. Resources that make a real difference. Club members recently hit Dennis Phillips Live to hype the event, sharing details on how everyone can get involved without needing a wetsuit. Head out to the park, snag a duck, and watch the chaos unfold. It's the perfect mix of fun and giving back to the next generation.
