UPDATE: Orchard House Stony Creek Duck Race Date Changed

BRANFORD, CT —For four decades, the nonprofit Orchard House Medical Adult Day Center in Branford has been providing a safe, welcoming place for aging adults.

With the goal to keep seniors living at home for as long as possible, the Orchard House specializes in offering a place where aging adults can feel "safe, loved, and appreciated."

As the day center celebrates its 40th year of programs including health and medication monitoring, personal care, delicious meals, socialization, fun recreational activities, and exercise to promote and extend personal independence and happiness, the non-profit still must hold fundraisers. But, as they describe, "due to COVID-19, non-profit fundraising has taken on a new meaning." Meaning donations are needed now more than ever.

One fun way to support Orchard House is to participate in the 2nd annual Stony Creek Brewery Duck Race, which was scheduled for Aug. 22 but due to forecasted storm the new date is Sunday Sept. 19 from noon to 2 p.m. with the Duck Drop set for 1 p.m. at the Stony Creek Brewery in Branford.

With 3,000 rubber ducks racing, the top prize $1,000 top cash prize and 20 other prizes valued at $100 each, now's the time to get in on the fun.
