Come join us for the Great Yorkshire Duck Race!

We will be racing 1200 ducks at Bolton Abbey (off the A59 between Harrogate and Skipton) on Saturday 9th July 2011.

For your chance to win some great prizes back a competing duck for just £1. Please give us your email address so that we can get in touch with you if your duck passes that finish line first (or second or third)! All proceeds will go to Yorkshire Wildlife Trust to support the work carried out across the county to protect and restore its fabulous wildlife and wild sites.

The ducks will be launched at 2pm near the Stepping Stones - there will be music, entertainment and stalls throughout the afternoon so bring a picnic and make a day of it!

1^st – Morning’s bird watching at a Yorkshire Wildlife Trust reserve of your choice with a member of staff as a guide for four people on a date to be mutually agreed (plus a Concise Bird Guide)

2^nd – Family ticket for the Flamborough seabird boat trip (plus a Seashore Detectives’ Handbook)

3^rd – A selection of The Wildlife Trusts’ publications to include Wildlife Gardening & Wildlife Walks

For every £1 you give the more ducks you will have in the race!
