Join in the fun as floating rubber ducks race down Captina Creek for cash prizes!
This year's Duck Dash is complete! Stay tuned for next year!
If your duck places, you'll receive a prize: $500 (first), $250 (second), $150 (third), $100 (fourth), and $50 (last).
That's right, even the unluckiest duck wins a prize!

*Tickets can also be purchased in-person from any board member or at Captina Conservancy's office (998 Shamrock Dr, Barnesville, Ohio), or at the Flower Gardens of Barnesville, 242 S. Gardner St.
The cost is $10 per duck or three ducks for $25. You'll also have the chance to give your duck its own unique name- Lucky Duck, Speedy McDuck, Duck and Cover... use your imagination! This will be a no-duck-left-behind event. Our volunteer sweeper crew will follow the ducks to ensure no impacts are left on beautiful Captina Creek. All proceeds from this event benefit Captina Conservancy, a 501(c)(3) non-profit whose mission is to promote, protect, and preserve Captina Creek and other regional watersheds.
