The Family Fun Zone will be open from 10 AM to 1 PM, and the ducks will fly at noon. Bring the kids (ALL AGES) down to the Dam Bait & Campground for a family fun zone with games, dunking booth, bounce houses, martial arts and dance demonstrations, food, and lots of prizes and goodies! You can walk to the duck drop viewing area from the family fun zone and watch the ducks as they fall from a helicopter and pontoon boats into the Osage River and race to the finish line. The first duck to cross the line will win $5,000! You can purchase tickets until 11 AM at the family fun zone; they are $5 each.

All funds raised remain local & are distributed to non-profit organizations via the Ozark Coast Kiwanis Organization. Your favorite mortgage lender at the Lake of the Ozarks hopes to see you there.
