The Duck Race
SYNERGY'S ANNUAL DUCK RACE FUNDRAISER!
Join Synergy for the annual Duck Race, a beloved summer tradition that brings fun and community spirit to Chestermere. Each year, from July through early August, residents can sponsor rubber ducks for just $10 at local markets, online, or during community events for a chance to win amazing prizes! At the end of the summer, our team organizes a mini-iron style obstacle course that features yard games, sports challenges, swimming, and the crowd's new favourite—kayaking. Local heroes from the RCMP and Chestermere Fire Department participate by racing through the course and randomly selecting sponsored ducks to determine the top five prize winners!
​
This fundraiser is not only a fun-filled event but also helps sustain many of the programs Synergy offers throughout the year including our no-cost youth programs and community-based initiatives. These programs create opportunities for youth and community members to connect, gain self-confidence, find a sense of belonging, and discover their passions while developing leadership skills.
