Returning, new events bring thousands to Colusa [Appeal-Democrat, Marysville, Calif.]
Jul. 8 Hundreds of yellow rubber duckies made their annual trip down the Sacramento River on the Fourth of July as part of the fourth annual Jim Davison Memorial Rubber Duckie Race.
The event, which is facilitated by the Colusa Lions Club, has been a Independence Day tradition in Colusa for more than 20 years, according to Jim Pingrey, Colusa Lions Club president.
The club, however, decided to rename the event in 2018 to honor the event’s co-founder, Jim Davison, who passed away in 2017.
Each year, community members have the opportunity to purchase $5 race tickets, each with a number that corresponds to one of the 1,500 numbered duckies that get thrown into the river as the clock strikes 2 p.m. on July 4.
