Overview

Each year, thousands of small rubber ducks, each “adopted” for $5, are launched in the Passaic River and “race” to the finish line at the Passaic River Park. “Parents” of the ducks first crossing the finish line receive prizes donated by local
businesses.
The Rubber Ducky Festival is a family-oriented afternoon of Fun, Food and Music featuring a selection of local kids' bands. Car Show, Rubber Ducky Race, Games, Waterballons, Moonwalks, and So Much More!

Where Do the Proceeds Go?

Proceeds of the event will go to benefit the Rotary Club of Berkeley Heights Good Causes. $5,000 of the proceeds from this year's festival will go to the Berkeley Heights Volunteer Rescue Squad. To learn more click here or click on the Good Causes tab above.
