Yesterday, we received a notice about the KenDucky Derby race that will be happening Friday, August 27th at Kirkwood Pool’s Lazy River at 7:30. Funds raised will help the Kirkwood Historical Society pay for much needed repairs and restoration projects at Mudd’s Grove.
Pioneer Pest Management & Mosquito Misting definitely plans to enter some ducks in this fun event. We encourage anyone else who can to do the same. It sounds like fun for the whole family. Costs are $10 for one duck or $25 for three ducks. Plus, there are some pretty good “bills” (get it?) involved for the winners:
First Place: $300
Second Place: $150
Third Place: $50
"...and down the stretch they come in the derby!"
According to the notice we recieved, there will be complimentary wine, cheese & refreshements. Ducks can be purchased at the gate on the evening of the race, or at any of the following locations:

We have been test floating our ducks with great success.
In fact, we are ducks # 245, #246 and #247. So if you see our ducks, please feel free to give them an extra little gust of helping wind!
