A crowd of eager spectators watched Fordingbridge’s annual duck race take place in the River Avon during the town's festival.
On Saturday, July 20, the festival took place on Fordingbridge Recreation Ground.
The Rotary Club held a duck race to raise money for community projects. This year, they raised more than £7000.
The race consisted of a corporate duck race followed by a public duck race, taking place in Riverside Park.
Alongside the duck race was a tombola stall, with sweets and chocolate donated by Fordingbridge Service Station and Sandy Balls.

Cllr Pete White said: "It was a very enjoyable day & despite the drizzle everybody seemed to have fun. There was a large crowd all through the afternoon. All the stalls were well attended, the food & drink outlets very well supported & the two live bands were fantastic.
"It takes a lot of hard work to put these events on for the community driven by a small band of individuals from Fordingbridge Events Group assisted by Fordingbridge Town Council.
"However when you see so many people having fun & enjoying the beautiful location down at the Recreation Ground it makes it all worthwhile."
