IT’S ‘quacks away’ for the duck race once again on Easter Monday (April 9th) thanks to the Lymm and District Round Table.
The popular annual event takes place in Lymm village, with the race beginning at 12.30pm. A wide range of food stalls and children’s entertainment will be open from 10.30am.
“We broke all records last year by raising over £5,000 for charity and local causes so we have a lot to live up to this time around,” said John Edwards, organiser and enthusiastic Round Table member. “We’re hoping some good weather will bring out the crowds again in support of this great community event.
“We’re particularly keen this year to hear from businesses who may wish to get their name out there in front of hundreds of local folk, either as one of the main sponsors or by buying a corporate or super duck.”
Racing duck tickets can be bought online at www.lymmduckrace.co.uk – normal duck tickets are priced at £1, with corporate ducks £30 and super ducks £60. The first duck over the line receives £100, second place £50 and third £25.
Alternatively, tickets are on sale by The Cross, Lymm, on the four Saturdays preceding Easter Monday and you can also buy them on the day.
