Lucky Ducky Derby Race
Feeling lucky? Then do we have a race for you. Again this year, the Tennessee Valley Art Association, in conjunction with the Helen Keller Festival, will conduct its annual Lucky Ducky Derby Race. Look for hundreds of ducks to participate Sunday, June 29th, at 3:00 p.m.
So, how do you adopt one of these lucky ducks? Various organizations adopt the ducks for $5.00 each; and we highly recommend adopting from PAWS (256-383-0690) or Heart's Cry Thrift Store in Elgin.
Not only will you have the satisfaction of helping these worthwhile organizations, you may win one of scores of prizes including cash, carpeting, or decorating services. Not feeling lucky? That's all right too--the last place duck wins a prize as well!
Update: Bilhan Kiris, UNA student from Turkey, remains in serious condition at Huntsville Hospital STICU. Kiris was a passenger in the car of Jon Willingham, killed in Saturday morning's police chase in downtown Florence.
