Rubber ducks float for fun and prizes in Huntington Beach

Thousands of yellow rubber baby ducks “raced” to shore in Huntington Beach on Saturday in the 26th annual Duck-a-Thon.

More than 3,000 mock ducks were tossed off the pier to float to dry land. The owners of the first 60 ducks to reach the shore won prizes. The first-place winner got $1,000.

A race for local businesses will be held at 1 p.m. Sunday.

Proceeds from sales of the rubber ducks will go toward AltaMed’s Huntington Beach Community Clinic.

Vendors will be at Huntington Beach Pier Plaza from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday. There’s also a Kid Zone with a rock wall, bounce houses, games and prizes.
