The Great Sutter Creek Duck Race
The rumors are true, the quack is back! The Great Sutter Creek Duck Race returns to Minnie Provis park April 26, 2025.
A fresh fleet of ducks, courtesy of the Native Sons of the Golden West Amador #17, are ready to take to the creek in this classic Sutter Creek community event. The event coordinators are making every effort to keep the event format and spirit as close as possible to the great Duck Races past of the 80’s and 90’s.
