July 4 Great Mill-town Duck Race

Join 4th of July revelers for the GREAT MILL-TOWN DUCK RACE at the Riverwalk in downtown Milton at 5 p.m.

Watch as 3,500 ducks are dropped from the Hwy 90 Bridge and race their way to the finish line on the Blackwater River. 

This fun-filled event is sponsored by the Blackwater Pyrates.

This is the only fundraiser of the year for the Pyrates with proceeds going to provide river cleanup, river education, boater education, and much of the volunteer work that is associated with the Blackwater River and the towns and villages along its shores.

So, come on out to the Riverwalk in Milton on July 4th for a day of fun and celebration and help cheer the winners on.
