ORGANIZERS OF the annual Capilano River Duck Race have invested in a new boom to retrieve the water-borne fowi during this
year’s event, scheduled for Sunday, March 24 (last year unseasonably high water resulted in wayward ducks end red-faced
Rotarians). A North Vancouver company, Versetech Products, designed and built the custom boom, and last week the North
Vancouver Rotury Club — the Duck Race sponsors — took delivery. Here (left to right), Versatech sales manager Jeff Randall and
company vice-president Leo Rimanic deliver the boom to Rotarian Neii McDonald.
