Wearing a Duck Hat for United Cerebral Palsy of Hawaii!

Aloha everyone!

Yup…that’s me…wearing a duck hat! My partners are Donna Fouts, executive Director of UCPA Hawaii, and one of our best young volunteers. I wore that hat for 7 hours this weekend around the Great Aloha Run Expo. Why? It’s “Duckie Time” again! Many mahalos (thanks) for your support last year. We had the best race ever and raised over $53,000.00! My friends and family (that’s you!) were responsible for just over $2,000.00! I know that times are tougher this year, but I’d like to ask for your support once again as United Cerebral Palsy Association of Hawaii celebrates 50 years of providing assistance to children and adults in Hawaii with Cerebral Palsy. This year’s event is the:

UCPA Hawaii – 22nd Annual Great Hawaiian Rubber Duckie Race!

The Great Hawaiian Rubber Duckie Race is one of our most successful events for UCPA. Here’s how it works: You “adopt” a duck—or as many ducks as you want—to race along the Ala Wai Canal. The first 50 ducks to cross the finish line win prizes for there adoptive parents—some of the prizes are even good for those of you on the Mainland! Everyone wins though because all proceeds will assist us in providing needed services to children with disabilities here in Hawaii. Individual duck adoptions are as low as $5.00 per duck! To celebrate this milestone, the organization is planning some very exciting events and we are hoping for your support.

This year’s adoption choices are:

$5 ADOPTION:
• One (1) Duck in the Race

$25 QUACK PACK:
• Four (4) Ducks in the Race
• Event T-Shirt

$100 22ND BIRTHDAY SPECIAL:
• Twenty-Two (22) Ducks in the Race
• Event T-Shirt

$250 UCP 50th ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL (VID - Very Important Duck):
• Fifty (50) Ducks in the Race
• Event T-Shirt
• 50th Anniversary Ball Cap

Race day activities, events and festivities will be at the McCully Shopping Center prior to the race.

Don’t miss it, the 22nd Annual Great Hawaiian Rubber Duckie Race will be held on Oahu March 21, 2009, with the race start time at 1:22 p.m.

As you can see, this is going to be a special day for UCPA and the little duckies. I would very much appreciate your support in the above activities. Attached you’ll find the adoption flyer, and of course, I’m encouraging you all to become a Very Important Duck! Please help me make this a special year for UCPA!

You can print, complete and return the attached form directly to the UCPA Hawaii Office at the address on the form!

Many Thanks! I look forward to hearing from you and have a Duckie Day!
