Duck for Life

The concept was developed by Joshua Lighton, Jon Davidshofer and Anthony Heddlesten, all recent academy graduates.

Ducks are available for $5 each or three for $10. At noon Saturday, July 21, the ducks will “race” down Duck Creek at Junge Park, 301 W. 35th St., Davenport.

The goal is to raise $3,000 that will be distributed to one or more schools that need help to complete a school-safety project. The duck winner will win up to $500.

Ducks will be available for purchase up until the day of the race. For more information or to buy a duck, visit www.qcunited.org

Pete the Purple Bull is an original Quad-City character created by QC United, a non-profit anti-bullying organization. Pete and his hip-hop dance posse visit Quad-City schools to promote being respectful and kind to oneself, to others and to the world.
