The committee overseeing the duck race has opened up invitations for non-profits and community organizations to participate in The Great Estes Park Rotary Duck Race of 2027.
To be eligible for participation in the duck race, organizations must directly benefit the Estes Valley community. Organizations and associations may either hold a valid 501c3 or 501c4 tax status with the U.S. Internal Revenue Service, or be deemed to benefit the local community as their primary mission.
Organizations that wish to participate must complete an online application and agree to the following:
- Generate a minimum of $625 in duck adoptions in the 2027 race.
- Participate in the kickoff meeting on February 25, 2027 (time and place TBD).
- Supply one or more adult volunteer workers to assist with the Duck Race.
Any organization participating in the 2027 race who fails to meet these requirements may be disqualified from participating in the next year’s race.
