“Ladies and gentlemen grab your Tenn-tucky Derby hats! The 2015 ‘Duck Season’ will kick off with the Derby Party and Auction on May 2 from 2 p.m. until the horses’ race,” said Queen of the Quackers Coreen King.
The party will be held at Sinking Creek Farm, located at 2473 Battleground Drive, Murfreesboro. “Party guests will enjoy a derby style party complete with dancing, h’orderves, and our signature drink, the ‘Duck Julep,’” continued King. “At 5:24 p.m., guests will have an opportunity to watch ‘the most exciting two minutes in sports’, as the Kentucky Derby is shown on the huge projector screen.”
The Derby Party will be a quackin’ good time and you will have an opportunity to “adopt” ducks for the upcoming May 16th Duck Derby. You can adopt a 6-Quack for $25, a Quacker’s Dozen for $50, or a Flock of Ducks for $100. There will be a Duck-tastic Silent Auction and an opportunity to “pick” the winning horse in the Kentucky Derby for a chance to win prizes.
We need your help to make the Derby Party a huge success. We are asking you to team up with the Child Advocacy Center to support this cause and show the Rutherford and Cannon County communities your commitment to our children.
