What is the Battle of the Bands Duck vs Shark Race?

• Band students will be selling numbered plastic ducks that will race down Nocatee’s lazy river on Sunday, August 25th at 9:00 am.
• The 10 fastest ducks will win a prize, with the first duck crossing the finish line taking home a prize worth $500! 
• Prizes will also be given to the students who sell the most ducks and the student who sells the winning duck! 
• Each student’s goal is to sell at least 20 ducks, but the more the merrier!
• Make sure to contact your friends and families near and far! You do not need to live in Florida to participate in the race.
• The race will be live streamed on Instagram, so everyone can watch, no matter where you live!
• Due to Nocatee Splash Park regulations we are only allowed to have a few people attend the live event since it will be happening when the park is closed. The students who sell the most ducks and the band booster board will set-up and commence the race. However, as mentioned above, the event will be live streamed for all to enjoy.

• As an additional incentive, 25% of all sales will be given to students as band bucks that can be used this band season toward your dues, merchandise, the banquet, etc.  The buyer MUST include your name with the payment to receive credit.
