IDAHO FALLS — Residents quacked and cheered during the Idaho Falls Rotary Club’s 34th annual Great Snake River Duck Race Saturday afternoon.
Over 30,000 ducks were released into the Snake River to raise funds to support local projects around the Greenbelt Riverwalk.
Before the ducks’ release, Kevin Call, owner of Farr’s Candy Company and a member of the Rotary Club, honored and held a moment of silence for Barbara and Bruce Turner, long-time Rotarians who died in a fatal car crash in July.
