FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

What is a duck pluck?

Since 2016, Big Brothers Big Sisters has been making a splash—racing ducks across the water to raise money for our award-winning mentoring programs serving children and families throughout Central Georgia.

But this year, our ducks are changing things up!

They're trading the racecourse for a chill pool scene on October 30. The ducks will gather, float, and wait to see which lucky ducks get plucked!

How many ducks are available for adoption?

We have a limited field of 5,000 ducks, so don't wait too long to get yours!

Is there a deadline to adopt ducks?

Ducks adopted online by midnight the day before the race will be entered.

Do I need to be present to win?

No! You are welcome to watch the races on Facebook Live. Winners will be contacted by email and phone.

Are these real ducks? Do I get to bring a duck home?

Sadly, no.

They're plastic.

But don't tell them that. These ducks have spent all year training for their big moment and have developed some pretty big personalities.

They're highly trained, extremely buoyant and absolutely convinced they're famous.
