 Dragon Boats weren't the only racing action over the weekend as Bemidji's Adult Day Services held their annual First City Duck Race. 1300 rubber ducks took the plunge and traveled the course set between Lake Irving and Lake Bemidji on the Mississippi River Saturday. Onlookers watched from the bridge as the bright yellow ducks traveled the 100 yard race course. Each duck was numbered and was sold for $5 apiece. The First City Duck Race is an important fundraiser for Adult Day Services. It is huge. All of the money is amazing that we raise. It helps all of our participants in our program keep going, which is amazing and great. For the first time in the Duck Race's history, one person won both first and third place, taking home a total of $1,300.
