Our brave little duck, soon to be bobbing down Lynde Creek in the great Whitby duck race, has a name.

It is, rather fittingly, Bob. Thanks to Sean Kelly, 8, of Oshawa, for that suggestion. The runner-up is Whit. B. Duck, from Aidyn Foster, 6, of Oshawa.

Sean and Aidyn both get tickets to the Big Foot-Monster Madness and Extreme Thrill Show at the GM Centre in Oshawa on May 24.

Thanks to all those who entered and came up with great names for the duck.

Look for a video of Bob doing his training on the creek at mediamash.com soon. And you can watch Bob and his friends in the race May 10 at D’Hillier Park in Whitby, starting at 1 p.m.
