Adopt a Duck Now
WGN Radio

Welcome to Team WGN Radio!

Choose to support Bob Sirott, John Williams, or Lisa Dent by adopting a duck and trying your luck.

Each adoption contributes to a more inclusive world alongside people with intellectual disabilities and enters the participant in a chance to win exciting prizes, including a Chevy Trailblazer, courtesy of Chicagoland and Northwest Indiana Chevy Dealers.

The 2025 Chicago Ducky Derby takes place on Thursday, August 7, beginning with the Derby Festival at 10:00 AM at Pioneer Court (401 N Michigan Ave). The official splashdown will occur at 1:00 PM from the Columbus Drive Bridge, sending more than 75,000 rubber ducks racing down the Chicago River.

WGN Radio is partnering with Special Olympics Illinois to support the Chicago Ducky Derby. Click here for more information on Special Olympics Illinois.

You can listen to Bob Sirott weekday mornings, 6 AM - 10 AM; John Williams weekdays 10 AM - 2 PM including the Wintrust Business Lunch; and Lisa Dent weekday afternoons 2 PM - 6 PM. Listen at AM 720 or wgnraido.com.
