11th Annual Duck Regatta

Grab the details on prizes and more as well as order your ducks online at https://capewestrotary.org/duckregatta/

Our 2025 event is Saturday, July 19, from 6:30 – 8:30p at Cape Splash!

The Cape West Rotary Duck Regatta is a family-friendly way to kick off the start of the summer season and raise money for Special Olympics and the Cape West Rotary Foundation! Big thanks to Farmer’s Insurance for being the Presenting Sponsor!

Our races are held at Cape Splash in partnership with the Cape Girardeau Parks and Recreation Aquatics team. Come cheer on your duck as it races around the Lazy River. Be sure to wear your swimsuit, because you can enjoy the entire waterpark during the two-hour event and even hit the Lazy River between races. Summer fun awaits!

Prizes? You bet! We’ve secured some awesome donations to award to our speediest ducks. Maybe it’ll be yours!

Also, don’t miss the opportunity to boast with pride as your civic group, classroom or business adopts a quacker for the Big Chief Business Battle Race. Decorate your duck and show off your crew’s pride, and maybe you’ll score a prize in the top three!

Ducks are on sale now for this year’s event! Click the Tickets link to learn more and purchase your ducks. We can’t wait to see you at Cape Splash in July!
