Ducks River Race

As part of the Kent Heritage Festival, The Kent Jaycees drop over 2,000 plastic ducks that have been bet on off the Main Street Bridge. These ducks float down to Tannery Park, and the first duck to cross the finish line wins! The ducks are dropped from the Main Street Bridge over the Cuyahoga River at 6:00pm, thanks to the Kent Fire Department.

This is our 29th year, and we look forward to sharing it with you and your family. Buy a duck now and bring your family to the festival for games, food, crafts and more!

One Grand Prize Winner will win $1,000, with a variety of other prizes available. Winners do not need to be present to win, and will be notified after July 1st via email or phone.
