Duck Race

All American Family Festival
with Duck Race

Disclaimer: Real ducks are not harmed during this race. We use squeaky rubber ducks!

What is the Duck Race?

The (rubber) Duck Race is part of a much larger festival called the All-American Family Festival. This festival is a FREE event for any family that wants to come enjoy a fun filled day riding ponies, jumping in bounce houses, laying in sand with a mermaid and eventually watching the very exciting (rubber) Duck Race that gets dropped off the Star City Bridge down into the Monongahela River in Star City. Who doesn't want to sit along the river during a beautifully sunny late summer day while watching over 2,000 rubber ducks float down the river?

Who wouldn't want to go to a completely FREE family festival!
