Florence, OR – The Oregon Coast Humane Society (OCHS) is excited to announce its first-ever Rubber Duck Roundup, a fun and family-friendly fundraiser to support shelter animals in our community. The event will take place on Saturday, September 20th from 2 PM – 4 PM at Darling’s Marina, 4879 Darlings Loop.

“This fundraiser will be such a fun event raising money for the shelter animals,” said Elizabeth Thompson, Executive Director of OCHS. “We’re grateful to everyone purchasing ducks, and to Darling’s for hosting our first ever Rubber Duck Roundup.”

OCHS will be selling 1,000 rubber ducks at $10 each. Every duck will be assigned a number, and during the event, a specially trained retriever dog will pull one lucky duck from the lake. The person holding that number will win $500! You do not need to be present to win.

Guests can also enjoy a festive afternoon at Darling’s Marina, where $1 from every beer sold during the event will benefit OCHS. Ducks can be purchased at the OCHS Thrift Store, the shelter, or by scanning the QR code on the event flyer.

OCHS is still inviting local businesses and individuals to sponsor the event. Sponsorships are available at the $100 and $250 levels, which include promotional opportunities through OCHS social media channels and visibility at the event. Those interested in sponsoring can contact the Humane Society at 541-997-4277.

The Rubber Duck Roundup is more than just a fundraiser—it’s a chance for the Florence community to come together in a fun way to support animals in need.
