Duck Dash prizes given out

Posted: Updated:

Grand prize winners from the United Way of Western Nebraska's Rubber Duck Dash are presented with their prizes this morning in Scottsbluff.

A 13 year old is the new owner of a brand new hot-red Camaro.

Jacob Krause's duck beat out the competition in this years annual Rubber Duck Dash.

The second place winner got an ATV, and third place won vouchers for a cruise of their choice.

United Way ended up raising over $90,000  for local charities, selling out of ducks for the first time ever.

Krause says he never expected to win something big, but he really wanted the ATV.

"We went to Perkins for lunch, and right when we were going to leave I was finally calmed down after everything."

"You know with the last two years we haven't been in the water. We felt like that kind of hurt sales because you know that's kind of the fun part and so hopefully its worth the great turnout, all the people that were there maybe that'll keep sales up next year."

United Way says they hope to have the race in the North Platte again next year and sell out of rubber ducks.
