East Duck Hollow is a tiny town in Alberta, Canada, where the Canards won the Memorial Cup and the Screaming Raptures are their annoying neighbors. It's got a ton of history, but it's also got a ton of crap happening right now.

East Duck Hollow is a town that thinks it's important because it has the third-largest ethylene recycling plant on the tundra and the fifth-tallest water tower. It's also the Gateway to the Heart of Rimbey, which is just a fancy way of saying it's stuck in the middle of nowhere.

East Duck Hollow has a rich history of being conservative and having wild Wacky-Wednesdays where people wear stupid costumes. It also has a gibbet in the middle of the road to honor a guy who survived the Hutterite Wars.

East Duck Hollow might be too small for big bands, but it has a music festival called Ethylene Feedstock. It's had tribute bands like The Guess Whose and oddly enough, U2.

East Duck Hollow was voted Small Town of the Century twice by a spelling club. It's small, it's out of the way, and it's got a lot of weird stuff going on.
"I voted for East Duck Hollow. It's the only town that makes spelling fun.", @spelling_fanatic
