Lucky Ducky Derby

Last Saturday we ventured over to Mobile for the Lucky Ducky Derby fundraiser for Ozanam Pharmacy.  Ozanam is a chartiable pharmacy in Mobile and Brad sends many of his patients there to use their services as his patients cannot afford their prescribed medicines.


The derby itself was so cute.  You could purchase an individual duck to enter the race or you could purchase a "quack pack" (5 ducks).  They then dumped the rubber ducks into pond at Providence Hospital and let the ducks "race".  Racing included pushing the ducks with big water hoses from a firetruck and then referees picking them up in their canoes.  They had 77 awesome prizes - the prizes ranged from handmade jewelry, year long gym memberships to include a personal trainer, and restaurant gift cards.  They sold over 2000 ducks so we weren't sure how we would fair on the prize horizon, but to our surprise we were a lucky recipients of a Panera gift card - how awesome is that!?!


We all had a wonderful time supporting a wonderful cause!
