The Duck Race is one of the most beloved spring events in South Minneapolis. Each year, hundreds of neighbors gather along Minnehaha Creek to cheer on thousands of bright yellow rubber ducks as they race downstream. It’s a joyful, high‑energy community tradition that brings together families, local businesses, and visitors from across Minneapolis.For more info: https://www.frnng.org/duck-race
