Daybreak Rotary is pleased to announce that for the 6th year in a row, because of our great sponsors, ALL of the duck adoption monies will go back into our community.

Additionally, proceeds will be donated to Big Brothers Big Sisters, Kids First Law Center, and the John Cushing Sunshine Grant Fund.
