2025 Wisconsin Rapids Firefighters Charitable Foundation Duck Derby

This is a chance to ‘Adopt a Duck’ that gets a chance to race down the river! There are raffle tickets with numbers on them that are directly associated to the same number on the bottom of a rubber duck. These ducks are then mixed up and dropped into the river at the starting line (Jackson ST Bridge) where they then race to the finish line (Grand AV Bridge)! The first six ducks caught are the winners & receive a cash prize. All money raised from this event goes toward behavioral health in wood county. May your duck be the fastest!
Anyone looking to buy tickets may contact one of the members on the fire department OR you can stop by WRFD to buy your tickets! They are available at both Station 1 & Station 2. Cost is $5.00 per ticket! **In the event the river is unsafe for the dropping of the ducks tickets will be placed into a ticket tumbler and will be drawn on Facebook live.**
