SALT LAKE CITY — August 1, 2003— The 15th annual Rubber Ducky Derby, benefiting the Make-A-Wish Foundation of Utah, will be held August 30 at 10:30 a.m. at Raging Waters, 1200 W. 1700 South, Salt Lake City.

Thanks to the generosity of presenting sponsor Jerry Seiner Dealerships and the ongoing national sponsorship of the Make-A-Wish Foundation by the International Union, UAW and General Motors, thousands of adopted rubber duckies will once again take the plunge this month in a race to win a 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier, donated by Seiner Dealerships, and other prizes. All proceeds will help grant wishes for Utah children with life-threatening medical conditions.

Ducky adoption forms are available at Jerry Seiner Dealerships, Utah Maverik locations or online at www.makeawishutah.org. Participants need not be present to win, but are invited to join us at Raging Waters to cheer on the duckies and to hear musicians Shane Jackman and Greg Simpson, who will be jamming at the Lazy River Island.

Ducky adopters will receive a two-for-one admission to Raging Waters, valid through Sept. 1, 2003, and a coupon for $5 off a lube/oil/filter for any GM vehicle from Jerry Seiner Dealerships.

Last year's Ducky Derby raised enough money to grant 34 wishes for area children, like Brandon, 5, who wished to be a cowboy; Rachel, 16, who wanted to swim with dolphins; and Tyler, 8, who wished to have a "cool fort."

In support of this sponsorship, UAW-GM people, GM employees and GM dealers in communities around the country have personally committed to volunteerism, fund raising and wish granting…truly "Making Smiles Standard Equipment^®" for these courageous children.
