Sunday 24 June, at the end of Winter Festival, saw our 2018 Rotary Duck Race held on Horne Creek. 44 ducks were entered from Queenstown companies to raise just under $16,000 for 'Sustainable Queenstown' to purchase a vehicle to collect food from hotels and supermarkets to distribute to the needy in our community. In addition there were prize sponsors including Countdown ($5,000).
The winning duck was from 'Provisions' Arrowtown and 2nd place went to 'Public Kitchen with Gay Pride'. Best dressed duck was from Rilean Construction.
A big thank you to all who assisted, including on the day. A special thanks to the organiser - new Rotarian Gemma Zust. What a fantastic effort - well done Gemma!
