This year will be the 20th anniversary of a beloved tradition! Watch 75,000 rubber ducks splash down in the Chicago River on 8/7 🐥💦

The 𝗖𝗵𝗶𝗰𝗮𝗴𝗼 𝗗𝘂𝗰𝗸𝘆 𝗗𝗲𝗿𝗯𝘆 is a unique spectacle downtown Chicago benefiting Special Olympics Illinois.

Don’t worry; there is netting that prevents the ducks from drifting away, and the ducks are all scooped up 10 minutes after the race starts.

Everyone is welcome to attend this FREE event! 💛
