Quack quack! 'Ducky Derby' looks to help people in need

WILSON COUNTY, Tenn. — It's your chance to win some cash and help out a great cause -- all at the same time!

NewsChannel 5 Anchor Carrie Sharp will emcee the Wilson County Community Help Center's annual Ducky Derby Party again this year! It's coming up on Saturday, May 3.

Here's how it works: buy a duck for $10, and if your duck is pulled, you'll win a prize -- the top prize is $2,000 cash!

You don't have to be present at the party to win — you only need to buy a duck!

All of the money goes toward the Wilson County Community Help Center, which provides food, clothing, and other essentials to those in need.

Autistic teen creates coloring book to benefit animals, Nashville Zoo

If you're looking for a stocking stuffer, here's a cool idea from an autistic teen to help benefit the Nashville Zoo. I had a chance to see some of Will Woods' work as a judge for Bellevue's Holidays in the Vue Christmas parade.
