Rubber duck race and car show scheduled for Rockwall
A Rockwall event in mid-October is putting a spotlight on a combination of two widely enjoyed items with a unique event.
The Rubber Duck Regatta and Jeep Festival is hosted by the Rockwall Grace Clinic and The Boys & Girls Clubs of Northeast Texas. The event is also using its proceeds to help both organizations.
The regatta is a contest where rubber ducks are released into Lake Ray Hubbard and set to flow along the racecourse. The first duck to cross the line at the end will earn its owner a 2025 4 Door Jeep Wrangler Sport, while second place will get a Visa gift card worth $1,000. Third will get a card worth $500.
The festival’s website has a spot to purchase ducks, with each costing $10. The winners will be named online in case they are not at the event.
Jeep owners can also register on the event’s site to participate in a car decoration contest called Jeep Show & Shine. There are several categories. If more space is needed than one typical parking space, then that participant must buy multiple. Each spot is $60.
Guests can also enjoy a market of vendors and food trucks, a play area for children, races for mini jeeps, some “Trunk-Or-Treating,” live music, and a watch party for a college football game.
The venue is The Harbor in Rockwall. Many events that are benefitting local organizations choose flyer printing as a promotional technique. Attending the event is free. The festivities will run between 10:00am and 6:00pm on October 11.
