The 2020 Great Texarkana Duck Race has been cancelled.

Susan Landreaux, the Executive Director of the CHRISTUS St. Michael Foundation has this to say about the cancellation:

Due to COVID-19 pandemic and to ensure we are doing all we can to decrease the spread of the virus, the Great Texarkana Duck Race has been canceled for 2020. Our hopes and plans are to relaunch the Duck Race in the summer of 2021 at the Holiday Springs Water Park.

We appreciate your support of the Duck Race over the years and look forward to presenting the Duck Race in 2021. Details will be sent in the upcoming months.

If you have any questions, and thank you for all you do to extend the healing ministry of Jesus Christ through your support of CHRISTUS St. Michael Health System.

 

It's always fun to watch the adopted ducks make their way through the Lazy River at Holiday Springs Water Park.

Last year’s race benefited cardiovascular services at CHRISTUS St. Michael Health System. An estimated 11,000 rubber ducks competing for approximately $20,000 in prizes.
