Spring is here! The Cottonwood Island Park ducks survived another winter, well-fed by community donations.

We want to thank the many generous and thoughtful community members and organizations who have kept the ducks fed and happy. We received a tremendous number of donations in 2020-2021 which befitted the ducks during much of 2021-2022 also.

Thanks you to Spruce Capital Feeds who donated grain, stored feed and handled private donations on our behalf. A special thank you to Pacific Western Brewery for their incredible donation of about 2,000 lbs of barley.

As always, we appreciate the Prince George Citizen and CKPG News for featuring our efforts to keep the ducks healthy and solicit community donations.

We hope everyone enjoyed the ducks this winter. It was wonderful to see so many people visiting the park and the ducks throughout the season.
