The Duck Race

Support the Charleston Charity Duck Race.

The Rotary Club of Daniel Island and other participating Rotary Clubs in the Charleston area will hold the 13th Annual Charity Duck Race on Saturday, June 1, 2019, on Daniel Island. Established by the Rotary Club of Daniel Island in 2007, this fundraising event has grown each year since and now includes six other Rotary Clubs in the greater Charleston area: Johns Island; Mt. Pleasant; North Charleston Breakfast; North Charleston; St. Andrews (West Ashley); and Summerville.

The race is a day of fun with something for everyone! There are games, jump castles, face painters, music, food vendors and more! Bring the whole family and join in the celebration.

The proceeds from this event are used to fund Rotary community service programs locally and around the world. Each of the participating Rotary clubs is designating one or more Lowcountry charities as named beneficiaries of the duck race. These charities represent a wide selection of local nonprofit organizations focused on health, food and nutrition, housing, children and families, and literacy. Over the past 10 years, this event has raised over $1,000,000 for local beneficiaries and Rotary projects worldwide.

The Race starts at 5 pm, and the winners will be announced at 6 pm; the music and fun will continue until 9 pm.

Support the Rotary Clubs of Summerville

There are three Rotary Clubs in Summerville – the Summerville Club (meets for lunch) founded in 1927; the Summerville Oakbrook Club (breakfast); and the Summerville Evening Club (dinner). Collectively, these clubs have over 160 members and have a long history of serving community needs and performing Rotary service projects.

After Hurricane Hugo, Rotary was a key player in forming a Crisis Ministry that raised over $250,000 and more in materials. More recently, the clubs support good works such as the “Gift of Literacy” book donation program, construction of a covered bus stop structure, and “random acts of kindness” monthly.
