(TRAVPR.COM) USA - August 13th, 2012 - Waterville Valley, NH- Waterville Valley Resort is staging an End of Summer Bash & Fireworks for families on Labor Day Weekend.

The weekend bash is highlighted by Red Sox’s very own Wally The Green Monster visiting Town Square for photo opportunities with fans, as well as free outdoor concerts by The Crunchy Western Boys, Josh Logan & Paul Costly, and Diversity.  There will be a Euro Bungie, a meet and greet with the Valley Snow Dogz (Waterville Valley’s winter dogsled team), performance by Juggling Jim “The One Man Circus,” North Face fashion show, afternoon barbeques, and Sunday evening fireworks over Corcoran Pond.

Many will be looking forward to the annual charity Duck Race on Snow’s Brook, with duck proceeds to benefit the New Hampshire Humane Society.  The owners of the fastest three ducks win cash prizes, and the final duck across the finish line wins something quacky.  Ducks can be purchased at any of the shops in Town Square, or by calling 603-236-8175.
