On August 6th approximately 25,000 rubber ducks will take the plunge into the East River and race from the Brooklyn Bridge to South Street Seaport for the 2008 Million Dollar Duck Race.

This fundraising event helps insure that our 46,106 Special Olympics Athletes in New York continue to receive year-round sports training and athletic competitions and that neither the athlete, their family nor their caregiver will ever have to pay to participate in.

So get your ducks in a row now and start your teams early! Fantastic prizes available for the Top Corporate and Top Community teams as well as other great prizes and give-aways!!

Milo’s Adventures - Follow Milo the Million Dollar Duck on a Manhattan migration to the South Street Seaport in time to join his friends for race day on August 6. Each week, he will stop at one of Manhattan's most recognizable spots to help us spread the word. The migration begins the week of July 1st and he will be available for visits to your company to help increase sales and spread the news about the Special Olympics programs. You can track his journey by signing up to receive our weekly e-journal notices by visiting www.specialolympicsny.org.
