Well, It Sure Didn’t Take Long For The Duck To Face Plant Itself This Year

Posted on May 20, 2019 | 4 Comments

“Sunny” — the enormous yellow duck that serves as great PR for the Sunrise Rotary Club’s annual Great Duck Race — was inflated yesterday on Jesup Green.

Usually it takes a few days — after it’s been moved to the Saugatuck River — for it to topple over.

This year: less than 24 hours.
