5. The Running of the Ducks returns to Ken-O-Sha Elementary School in Grand Rapids.
The event has been happening for more than a decade. Every year, a mother duck nests in the school courtyard. The ducklings are unable to fly out of the courtyard, so when she's ready to move, the mother duck pecks on the door to let students and staff know.
The staff then helps her navigate through the halls to outside.
