Duck, duck, goose Greenville. The 20th annual Reedy River Duck Derby is taking over Falls Park this Saturday, May 4 at 2:30p.m.

What is the Duck Derby?

The Duck Derby is an annual fundraiser held by The Rotary Club of the Reedy River Greenville — a club, made up of “service-minded individuals,” who are involved in many service projects throughout Greenville County.

What happens at the event?

Picture this: You’re relaxing by the falls. Suddenly, you hear a bell and millions (okay more like ~14,000) rubber ducks start cascading down the waterfall with one goal in mind... winning one of these cool prizes.

How can I get involved?

It’s not too late to adopt your own duck (you can get a single duck or a pack) + you can also volunteer for the event.

Trust us, it’s a ducking good time.
