Welcome to our team page!

Join us in making a SPLASH at this year’s Chicago Ducky Derby! We’re excited to support this incredible event as we work toward reaching our duck adoption goal before the Duck Drop on August 7th.

By race day, the goal is to have more than 75,000 rubber ducks adopted and ready to splash down from the Columbus Drive Bridge to race along the Chicago River. All proceeds benefit Special Olympics Illinois, supporting a community of over 26,000 athletes, Young Athletes, Peer Partners, and Unified Partners across the state — helping to build more inclusive communities everywhere.

Ready to adopt your duck? Choose a single duck, a quack pack, a ducky dozen, or an entire flock — and you’ll be entered to win great prizes, including the grand prize: a Chevy Trailblazer!

Want to see the fun in person? (Merch Mart Employees Only) Head to the Columbus Drive Bridge on August 7th at 1:00 p.m. to watch the big drop!

Thank you for supporting Special Olympics Illinois and the communities they serve.
