Do you know what they call a group of ducks on water? A paddling...and you can adopt your very own!
Whether your paddling has two ducks or a dozen, they are excited to be adopted and are ready to dash against thousands of others to benefit the Child Life Program at Sutter Children’s Center, Sacramento.
Join us on Saturday June 7, 2014 at 5 pm as thousands of rubber ducks race in the Calypso Cooler, an 800-foot-long lazy river, at Raging Waters Sacramento at Cal Expo. There are GREAT prizes for the top 5 finishers!
Funds raised by The Duck Dash will be used for music therapy services in the Child Life Program at Sutter Children's Center, Sacramento. Music Therapists use a variety of techniques that have been proven to be effective in helping children and adolescents reach a wide range of goals through music. Activities and techniques include listening to live music, songwriting, singing, live music making and improvisation, song lyric analysis, and/or guided relaxation.
The Duck Dash is owned and operated by Donut Dash, a registered 501(c)3. Tax ID 27-1671648
