The Chicago Duck Derby is a very special event to me. In 2017 I went to the Duck Derby and it was the first Special Olympics event I ever attended. That day, I was introduced to the wonderful Special Olympics community - athletes, families, coaches, volunteers, and supporters. Six years later the positive impact this community has on my life is a precious blessing. I am VERY proud to be a part of this movement and am grateful to all my friends, family and colleagues who have joined me along the way.
Details below. Adopting a duck means you have a chance at winning some prizes, but the biggest prize of all is supporting a community committed to making everyday life better for people with disabilities and their families.
Thanks for considering and visiting this page.
