Chapter 862 Waddles Into Annual Duck Race

Duck Race

The annual VVA Beaver County, PA, Chapter 862 Duck Race took place in August during the Hookstown Fair.

Chapter members sold more than two thousand $5 tickets, and two thousand rubber ducks sailed down the temporarily flooded Hookstown Creek. The first duck to reach the end of the creek won its owner $1, 000. An additional $1, 400 in prize money was awarded.

The balance will be applied to veterans’ projects. Over the years, the Chapter 862 Duck Race has raised more than $110, 000 for veterans.
