Great time had by all at the Duck Race!

Duck Race

Our first community event since the Covid-19 crisis hit us proved a success with many enjoying a fun-filled afternoon.

With duck themed children’s activities and crafts that many parents also enjoyed. Demonstrations from some of our regular classes. Displays and information about the hall and the many groups that use it. BBQ food, the bar, cake and refreshments available throughout the event. It was fabulous to see so many safely enjoying a social get-together again.

The 28th Duck race was launched at 5:00pm from Kerne Bridge with the three prize winners rescued from the Wye at the canoe launch some 20 minutes later.

Our sincere thanks to all the volunteers and attendees that made this event possible.
