Why Move a Duck Race Fundraiser Online?
Traditional rubber duck races can be wonderful community events, but they can also require a river or water course, thousands of physical ducks, volunteers, setup, storage, retrieval, cleanup, and significant race-day coordination.
A virtual duck race fundraiser provides another option. Your supporters still get a fun race experience while your organization can focus more of its energy on fundraising, sponsors, outreach, and its mission.
The excitement of a duck race.

Mid-South Lions — One Race Across Four States
The 2026 Mid-South Lions online duck race brought together Lions from Arkansas, Mississippi, Missouri, and Tennessee in one shared fundraising experience.
The fundraiser supported the important mission of helping people in need of sight and hearing services while giving participating Lions Clubs a way to promote the same race across multiple states.
This is one of the advantages of a virtual fundraising race: supporters and participating organizations do not have to be standing beside the same river to take part in the same event.
