Duck Race

10 a.m.–3 p.m. ET

Thousands gather each September for a fun-filled family event hosted by the Auburn Historical Association. The Duck Race is the main attraction with prizes for the ten fastest ducks, including a top prize of $1,000! There will be food trucks, local artisans and authors, a small petting farm, an apple pie contest, a kids baking contest, music and climbing wall. Active demonstrations of wool spinning and carding, cider pressing, blacksmithing, rug braiding, pottery making and so much more are ongoing continuously during the day. A parade to celebrate our country's 250th birthday will proceed down Hooksett Road.
