Ludlow Rotary Annual Duck Race cancelled this year due to Flood in Ludlow

Although it is getting close to that time of year– when we all root for our favorite duck, the recent flooding in Ludlow has upended the plans.

The 24th annual duck race sponsored by the Ludlow Rotary Club (LRC) will not be racing down the Black River this year because the flood of July 10 has made it unsafe and unhealthy to be in the river.

The LRC formally announced that the traditional Ralph D Hogancamp Memorial Duck Race will be cancelled this year. It will return in August of 2024. Thanks to all of those who have supported us in years past. We look forward to next year for the fun event's return.

Ludlow Rotary meets most Tuesdays at noon at DJ's Restaurant. For more information about our club and projects, please join us or talk to a local Rotarian.

CAVENDISH TOWN WIDE TAG SALE IS A GO
By popular demand, Cavendish will be holding it's 13^th Annual Town Wide Tag Sale on July 29 (Saturday) from 9-2. We can all use a break, find items we might have lost through the flood, enjoy some good food and have a sense of normalcy it what is a very abnormal time. Vendors are urged to set up on one of the town greens or along Main St. in order to keep people off the back roads.

The Cavendish Connects Booth, located at the Proctorsville Green Gazebo, will have information for those who have been impacted by the flood, including resource information from Efficiency Vermont.

In the event that the Town deems it unsafe to hold this event, we will post information on the Cavendish VT Facebook page and reschedule www.facebook.com/cavendishvt

If you have questions, please call 802-226-7807 or e-mail cavendishconnects@gmail.com
