The Ducks not on SDC website

When did this happen? Is this recent, did I miss it? Or Is this something we had discussed and I forgot.>??
I pulled up the SDC site to check on what time the ducks start running in the am, and there was no link to get to the duck website
. I had to google it..??
(was not sure where to put this on the forums? So it may need to be moved)

I think it might have disappeared when they changed to their new website layout. The Ducks are definitely still in business - or so it appears.

They put all the "ride the ducks" locations on the same web site. Seems like they could still link to it somehow if they wanted to.

RTD is now a separate company, Chris Herschend is the full owner. The company split them thinking that they could incorporate franchises which would not be possible with the way that HFE is set up in the Private Market.

I believe Hollywood is absolutely correct. I heard Jack or Pete in a interview last year saying they were going to be sold to a family member.

So Bruce Herschend has operated Talking Rocks Caverns for years. Is this his separately owned company, or is it a part of the bigger company? I think it is listed as a Silver Dollar City Attraction.

They (RTD, TR, BP) are part of HFE, but not all of them are in HFEC. Does that make sense? It's all in the way they are labeled with the Government.
