The race will kick off on September 29 at 2 p.m. at the Camelback Bridge. The first 10 ducks to cross the finish line will win a prize.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prizes include a $250 cash prize, a $100 Food Lion gift card, a 50-minute massage from The Now, Starbucks gift cards, Applebee\u2019s gift cards, a Town and Country gift basket and gift card, a wine and relax basket and a $300 Essential gift basket from Pinehurst Medical Dermatology.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A portion of the proceeds from ducks adopted through the Sanford Rotary Club will benefit COTA for Team Ken in honor of Ken Moss to assist with transplant-related expenses. Moss is awaiting a liver transplant due to a single-cell genetic disorder called Alpha-1 Antitrypsin Deficiency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cRotary fundraisers are vital in transforming lives and uplifting our communities,\u201d says Sanford Rotary Club president Darla Molina. \u201cCOTA for Team Ken exemplifies the type of initiative that Rotarians passionately support, showcasing our commitment to service above self.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Jonesboro Rotary Club will dedicate a portion of the proceeds from its duck adoptions to Outreach Mission.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI am proud to be part of a group that stands united, always ready to support fellow Rotarians and the broader community,\u201d says Meg Moss, wife of Ken and a member of the Sanford Rotary Club. \u201cWe are grateful for the support COTA for Team Ken has received from the Rotary clubs and the Sanford community.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To adopt a duck, contact a member of either Rotary club or make an online donation via Paypal at www.paypal.me\/rotarysanford.
