The iconic Duck Race is on Memorial Day! Join the South Mountain YMCA on the banks of the river in Memorial Park, Maplewood May 26 starting at 11:00am, and cheer your ducks to victory and prizes. Each year, the Y selects a recipient of the Ellie and Charlie Gianni Community Impact Grant, based on applications received. A qualifying local non-profit will receive 20%, up to $5,000 of the proceeds, in the memory of Ellie, who brought this event to us.
