University Place Duck Parade. Every year on the first Saturday in June the University Place community gets together for the annual Duck Daze celebration. The event began about 10 years ago when TCC member Dixie Harris and Terry Reim, founders of the University Place Farmers Market, felt that they needed an event to celebrate the end of the rainy season, as well as, the wonderful improvements to Bridgeport Way. The yellow duck was adopted as the symbol of the parade and is now a community mascot. |
