duck sorting fun

United Way's Stephanie Hoover and Jessica Gonzalez joined volunteers from Cape Bank like Vanessa Hoover, from the Egg Harbor Township branch and Kim Truitt from Stone Harbor, in a day of duck-sorting fun. But there is more to do. Can you help?

It’s time to get quackin’. The United Way of Cape May County’s Rubber Ducky Regatta is just around the corner on Aug. 15, and there’s lots of work to be done.

That’s why volunteers from Cape Bank joined United Way Financial and Development Director, Stephanie Hoover and Board Member Jessica Gonzales, of Sturdy Bank, for a day of duck-sorting fun at the official United Way “Rubber Duck Training Center” at Coastline Cooling and Heating in Burleigh.

The ducks will be distributed this week, and soon they will be available at local banks and businesses to benefit United Way sponsored programs.

Old favorites like the Fireman and Soccer ducks are finding their places among new friends like the Rock and Roll duck and the Cowgirl duck–each one charming in his or her own way, and eager for adoption by Rubber Ducky fans. New duck parents are also eligible to win fantastic prizes from local businesses at the Regatta at Morey’s Raging Water’s water park next month.

But there is still plenty of work to be done in preparation for the United Way’s biggest fundraising event of the year, and the duckies need your help.

If you can lend a hand, the United Way offers many volunteer opportunities, where you can make friends (feathered and otherwise) with people dedicated to making Cape May County the best that it can be. To see how you can help, call 609-729-2002, or visit uwcmc.org
