Rubber Duck Race, Scavenger Hunt, Sculptures Fly Into Naperville
This year, downtown Naperville will be brightened up with colorful duck sculptures, a rubber duckie scavenger hunt and a rubber duck race.
NAPERVILLE, IL — A rubber duck race, tucked-away rubber duckies and brightly decorated statues are among the spec-QUACK-ular activities planned in downtown Naperville this spring and summer.
Starting June 2, residents will be able to track down 18 painted over-sized duck sculptures throughout the downtown area. The Downtown Naperville Alliance plans to unveil the sculpture locations in early May.
Throughout the season, rubber ducks will also be stashed in downtown Naperville businesses for shoppers to find.
