The club hosts the unique event to give back to the community. All proceeds help benefit local community organizations.
"So Kiwanis is an international organization that's dedicated to improving the lives of children all around the world," says Amanda Malinowski, Chair for the Incredible Duck Race. "Our local Kiwanis chapter has been serving kids here in Tampa for over 100 years. So the proceeds from this event support our programs, such as scholarships for students, we build reading rooms in Boys and Girls Club all around Tampa. So kind of bringing books to neighborhoods that don't have access."
