Morell River Run Festival

07/19/2026

🦆🍓 What an incredible afternoon at Rossiter Park!

A fantastic crowd came out for Sidney's Strawberry Social 🍓 and the Antique Car Show 🚗, and Mother Nature was on our side as the weather cooperated perfectly for this year's Morell River Run Duck Race! ☀️💙

🎉 Congratulations to Kathleen Rafuse (Duck #500), who took home the $1,000 Grand Prize! 💵 Her duck jumped into the lead right from the start and never looked back! 🦆🏁

A huge thank you to the Morell Fire Department 🚒 for using their rescue boat to lay out the race course, keep our ducks on track, and draw our Lucky Duck winner. 🍀

🎊 Congratulations to Catherine Greer (Duck #448), our Lucky Duck winner of $250! As it turns out, Catherine was also this year's biggest duck seller—talk about a lucky day! 🦆💰

And the good fortune didn't stop there! 🎟️ Pat Duffy drew the winning 50/50 ticket, and it belonged to festival volunteer MaryLeah Doyle , who took home $204! 💵👏 If that's not a great reason to volunteer with the Morell River Run Festival, we don't know what is! ❤️

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who bought ducks, attended our events, volunteered, and helped make another amazing festival possible. We can't wait to do it all again next year!

✌️ Until next time… peace out! ☮️

The ducks will be dropped around 4, weather depending- we will post here if we have to postpone for weather. Ducks will be for sale at the shelter until around 3:30-3:45- so we have enough time to get all sold ducks into the race!

A huge thank you to everyone who came out to our “Drive-In” Movie Night on Wednesday! 🍿🎬

We had a fantastic evening watching The Super Mario Bros. Movie, and it was wonderful to see so many families and friends enjoying the fun together. Thank you to everyone who attended.

☀️ It looks like it’s going to be a beautiful evening!

Join us for our Community Parade, starting at 6:30 PM. We encourage parade participants to arrive a little early to get organized.

The fun doesn’t stop there! After the parade, head over to the park for Tween Night, then wrap up the evening with Trivia at 8:00 PM.

We can’t wait to see everyone out for another great night of community fun!

❤️ A Heartfelt Thank You to Our Sponsors! ❤️

As we celebrate another Morell River Run Festival, we'd like to extend our sincere thanks to all of our incredible sponsors. Some have been supporting the festival for all 18 years, while many others have joined us along the way. Whether you've been with us since the beginning or are supporting us for the first time, we are truly grateful for your generosity.

Morell River Run Festival simply wouldn't be possible without the support of our amazing local businesses, organizations, and community partners. Your contributions help us continue our tradition of offering a wide variety of free events for everyone to enjoy, creating a festival with something for all ages.

This year, we're also proud to host two special fundraising events in support of the Morell Fire Department's Fire Truck Fund:
🔥 Trivia Night – Friday evening
🤼 Red Rock Wrestling – Saturday evening

We hope you'll come out to enjoy the many free festival activities throughout the week, and if you're able, show your support for our local firefighters by attending one (or both!) of these fundraising events.

Thank you to our sponsors, volunteers, and everyone who helps make the Morell River Run Festival such a special community celebration. We can't wait to celebrate with you!
