What a fun afternoon we had on Sunday, August 29th at Riverside Park! The 10th Anniversary Celebration of our Salida Sunrise Rotary Club was truly a celebration of service to our wonderful community! The kids had a great time racing small ducks in gutters and painting rocks and small ducks. Everyone enjoyed the fabulous live music, the amazing performance by the Salida Circus, and meeting with many local non-profit organizations. And of course, we had the Lucky Ducky races in the Arkansas River!

Congratulations to our Lucky Ducky Race winners! At all three levels, the prizes are a scholarship in the business/organization's choice of name during the next school year. First place is a $1500 scholarship, 2nd place is a $1250 scholarship, and 3rd place is a $1000 scholarship.
