Here is a close look at just some of the summer fun.

May 19-20:

Duck-A-Thon-Race & Festival- Huntington Beach

Huntington Beach’s annual Duck-A-Thon brings people from all walks of life together to raise funds for its Community Health Care centers. Buoyant toy yellow rubber duckies are sold for $10-$20 a duck depending on size. Each participant is able to name his or her duck and each rubber ducky is marked with a number on the bottom.

At the commencement of this two-day event all of the duckies are launched simultaneously into the waters below the Huntington Beach pier. The first rubber duckies to reach land are declared the winners and those who purchased the winning duckies receive prizes ranging from gift certificates, prize baskets and much more.

After the Duck-A-Thon’s commencement ceremony the real fun begins. Face painting, moon bounces, fire trucks, fine food vendors and beverage carts are all on site for the free of admittance event.
