When you sponsor the Ohio Rubber Duck Festival & Duck Dash, you’re doing more than backing a weekend of fun—you’re investing in students. Through the Six District Compact’s EntrepreNEW Pathways program, high school students gain real-world experience in business planning, marketing, and event management by organizing this very festival.

Your support gives them the chance to step into leadership roles, work alongside local business mentors, and bring a large-scale community celebration to life. Each sponsorship fuels their growth while creating an event that strengthens families, small businesses, and community pride across the region.

Together, we can make an impact that lasts long after the final duck crosses the finish line.
