$8,000 raised at 2026 Three Pillars Duck Race

By Terri Isabell, Three Pillars Chief Development Officer 

After a little weather delay, the annual Three Pillars Duck Race finally made a splash on Wednesday, September 23. Residents, staff, families, and community members gathered along the banks of the Bark River to cheer on 2,000 rubber ducks as they bobbed, splashed and raced toward the finish line. 

Beginning the race.

The river was moving fast and the ducks were flying! The race lasted 3 minutes and 43 seconds, making for an exciting dash to the finish.

A huge THANK YOU to everyone who purchased ducks and helped make this year’s race such a success! Together, we raised $8,000 to support the Glenn L. Humphrey Lodge Scholarship Fund and the Three Pillars Resident Support Fund. 

Your support makes a meaningful difference—providing educational opportunities for students and helping ensure Three Pillars residents receive the support and care they need. 

Thank you for helping us make a splash for two wonderful causes!
