Ducky Derby

The Ducky Derby was held at the Weldon, NC park by the Roanoke River on saturday the 18th and it was a beautiful day for it. My daughter Rachel was there with my two grandsons, Kaden & Matthew. They are here enjoying one of the rides.


Matthew enjoying a cool piece of watermellon.

My wife and the boys cooling it in the shade.


I don't ride motorcycles but I thought this one was unique.


One of the games that kids could play. Hit the pad making the bell ring to win an inflated huge hammer or bat. Every kid won whether they made it ring or not.




Fun on the swings for my family.




Matthew enjoying the slide.

The brothers together.

















Kaden's favorite event crawling under the car and then sliding down.











The back of the car slide.









Star of the show.








Piles of ducks you could purchase for a chance to win big bucks. The purchased ducks were poured into the river and they floated down to a point where the first one to cross a line won the money.
