Please do not sponsor any ducks after 2.30pm, you will NOT be entered into the duck race, but you will still be charged.
Come and join us on 29 August 2011 for the Great Norwich Duck Race!

At 4pm 5000 ducks will be released at St Georges Bridge and flow downstream to Fye Bridge, passing the Ribs of Beef public house in Norwich.

Each duck will take to the water for a minimum of £2 sponsorship, once you have sponsored a duck you will be sent a race entrance ticket number by email and this ticket will be allocated to a duck number in the race. If you want more than one duck please specify the number of ducks and/or donations in the comments box.

We have lots of top prizes on offer from a framed and signed Norwich City shirt from the promotion winning team, meals for two, weekend breaks, vouchers and lots more.

We are also holding a corporate race - ducks are for sale at £100 and you will be given a 32cm duck to paint. The £100 will also include a banner to display on the day, a link from our website and a notification on our Facebook page.
There is a trophy for the winning corporate duck. (Crystal Duck donated by www.caithness-crystal.co.uk)

All corporate ducks will be auctioned afterwards, a date is yet to be confirmed, but will be held at The Ribs of Beef public house.

If you would like to take part in either of these races please make a donation or get in touch with Martin Green on martin.g@break-charity.org or 01603 670107
