Semper Fi Duckie!


I found this pic from the summer collection of festivals. This patriotic quacker comes from Buena Vista Colorado where Quacky was attending Gold Rush Days. Quacky had a chance to visit with the Harley riding marine on his own summer adventure. When we spied the Marine plates, we knew we had to get a duckie on board. This is for all of our fighting men and women. a hearty Semper Fi! Quack on!

Quacker Gift Shop hosts Accion's Denver WELead Program






On Monday, the Quacker Gift Shop hosted the ACCION WELead Women’s Entrepreneurial Leadership Program Kickoff Event in Colorado! The event brought ACCION’s women entrepreneurs & partners to celebrate a year of ACCION’s work in Colorado. Co-hosted by Quacker Gift Shop owner Jennifer Brown and Metal Trading Corp's Linda Peotter, the event was hailed as a rousing. Guests enjoyed catering and flowers by Accion clients as well as a speed mentoring program led by Accion. The WELead program brings together women business leaders and women entrepreneurs together in order to develop ideas and strategies for succesful business development. Quacky was proud to have the duck shop be the place where this wonderful program was kicked off in Colorado. For more information about WELead, contact Julie Candelaria at Accion.

Quacky visits the Mountains




On a brisk fall day, Quacky had a chance to get out and visit the Rocky Mountains! I brought a couple of friends, namely skier duck and chef duck. We had a great time sampling the dogs at the Coney Island, and were able to spend some quality time in the pond by the roaring Platte River. Look for future adventures as Quacky visits more fun locales. If you'd like your own skier or chef duck, just visit the Quacker Gift Shop online or in Englewood, CO at 3440 S Broadway. Quack on!

Territory Days was Rip Roarin Fun




Hello all you duckie fans, Quacky here to report on the weekend going ons with the Quack Gift Shop. Our friends were at two huge festivals in Colorado over the Memorial Day weekend. First was territory Days in old Colorado City. The weather was a bit on the cool and wet side, but that didn't keep the duckie fans from checking out the cowboy ducks, military ducks and even the scream duck! We had so much fun, we'll defiantely be back next year. The duck booth was set up on western wear, and Steve and Jennifer even kept on their cowboy hats most of the days. The hospitality was great and during one rain, some of the ducks had to take a dip in the gutter run off. Watch for the next report from the Boulder Creek festival, and wait until you see our newest member of the flock, the famous Lady Quackington

Meet Tegan




Hey all you duckie lovers, Quacky here. I want you to meet Tegan. She came to the Denver Duck Drop this weekend. When we met her, she said she was the ultimate duck lover. Now Tegan may look like any other mild mannered gal, but she is one quacktacular fan! Tegan showed us some of the most amazing body art we've seen this side of Duckville. Take a look at her angel and devil duckies. This is not like the devil duckie you find at the Quacker Gift Shop. These are one of a kinds. Tegan also designed some her own ducks at the design your own duck booth. If you see Tegan, make sure to give her your best quack up! She'll love it.

Day 4 at the stock show


Hi Quacky friends-


Today is day four at the stock show! Mutton bustin and bull riding are the big events of the day. Quacky went to the poultry exhibit to check out his ducky friends and couldn't believe his eyes. Mixed in with the hens, roosters and geese was a very rare Western Yellow Duck family. You'll see by the picture that their cage allows the Western yellow the ability to move freely for comfort. Judging is tomorrow, and Quacky is very excited to see how his yellow friends do among the best of the feathered best! For your very own Western Yellow, go to http://www.quackergiftshop.com/. That's all for now - quack quack!
