Join the fun at The Discovery Duck Pluck event at "the River" for the benefit of The Children's Museum of the Desert. It's a wholesome event of fun for families and community members. Saturday, April 12, 2008.

On April 12th, up to 10,000 rubber duckies are dumped into The River in Rancho Mirage. Local celebrities, sponsors, and volunteers "pluck" several of the thousands of yellow ducks as they float across the water. Participants even have a "quack" at the winning great prizes!
