Rubber Duck Hunt


  • Downtown Howell Corner of Michigan Ave and Grand River Ave. Howell, MI 48843 USA (map)

Howell Recreation is seeking your help on an exciting and quirky adventure! A crate of very rare rubber ducks was supposed to arrive, but when it did, it had been broken open, and the ducks inside scattered across Howell! Now, these rare rubber ducks are hiding all over town, and we need your keen observational skills to track them down.

Thanks to the special permission granted by the Wild Rubber Ducks Association, you’ve been named an honorary zoologist to assist in this important mission. Your task is to locate these rare breeds of rubber ducks that have settled in various locations around Howell.


Key Details:

Start Date: March 24th (pickup) Ducks will be out to find beginning April 1st.

End Date: April 30th (the rare ducks are only in Howell for the month of April)

Special Pack: Starting March 24th, you can pick up a unique study pack containing valuable resources for your search, including tips on where the ducks might be hiding.

Mission: Search the locations based on provided tips and find which species of rubber ducks are present at each spot.

Report: After finding all the ducks, submit a detailed report identifying the species you’ve found at each location.

Rewards: Once you have completed the search and submitted your findings, each participant will receive a special rubber duck pet as a reward for their contribution to this important zoological mission!

So gear up and get ready for a fun-filled month of duck discovery! Your adventure as a zoologist begins on March 24th, and remember: the clock is ticking - the ducks will be gone by April 30th!
