place. Little appreciated Canadian city with the distinction of producing more top-flight dart flingers and less good hockey players than anywhere else in Alberta; also a good source of shale, lignite coal and third-base men.
Birthplace of warm fusion-an eclectic physics pursuit, and home to the only hindu ashram in the greater Eckville region, Duck Hollow is well situated to sell tires to people coming off the badly maintained Lacombe-Rimbey bypass as well as to siphon tourists away from the Devonian fossil beds and into the Rocky Mountain Rickettsial Diseases Museum recently built on the disused grounds of the sanitorium.
The high school Reach For The Top team was recently second runner-up in the Provincial tournament, taking advantage of some opportune dart-related questions in the final short snappers.

place. A town in Alberta, Canada, home to both the Memorial Cup winning Canards and their cross-town rivals the Screaming Raptures, with a rich and vibrant past, a violent present, and a glorious future. Site of the third-largest ethylene recycling plant on the tundra and the fifth tallest water tower on the planet this "Gateway To The Heart of Rimbey" is perfectly placed to reap the benefits of the coming world hydroethylene shortage.
A maze of cunning cul-de-sacs leads tourists on a circuitous path past an interesting procession of lemonade stands in summer and frozen waffle tables in winter.
Tourists can watch the bicephalicducks wallow on the settling ponds or visit the Canadian Fossil Museum where Kenny Shields and Mike Reno host "Sleep With A Dinosaur Night" every Friday.
Twice voted "Small Towne Of The Centurey" by the local creative spelling club Duck Hollow has a rich history of social conservativism as well as a Wacky-Wednesday at the Veterans of the Legion Hall where ethnic dress is encouraged.
A memorial gibbet placed in the centre of the main roadway honours the memory of the last survivor of the Hutterite Wars, Glen Hofer.
While too small and out of the way to attract major touring bands, Duck Hollow hosts a music festival each summer "Ethylene Feedstock" which has featured such tribute bands as The Guess Whose, Michael Jack's Son, Doctor's Hooker, Bond-Jovi Bond, and oddly enough, U2.

Sure could go for a delicious waffle and a game of cribbage this morning!
Well then, East Duck Hollow is the place for you! Do you got your GPS to get through all them cul-de-sacs?

place. Isolated hamlet in Alberta, Canada, that, fueled by high profits, fueled by high ethylene prices, has been riding high on the hog without the sponsorship of big gravel. Free from the doldrumic influence of East Duck Hollow since the partition of 1948 the vibrant citizenry of West Duck Hollow have been kindling the fires of progress in their matchless march to the future of petrochemical dominance-related carbon-footprinting. It is a place free from zoning restrictions where people can occupy a public park with tents, signage, muffins, and no clear purpose.
Clear cutting by a forward-thinking Tourism Council allows views of Ponoka, from which the Rocky Mountains can be seen. An interpretive center is planned for the tourist kiosk which is planned for the fall of 2015.
Lumberjack competitions and fencing exhibitions, often between gangs of tree-toughs from the various hamlets in the greater Duck Hollow region, provide much of the business at the local medical office.

West Duck Hollow sure has some pretty vistas. You can sure see that this is a place that owns some nice Ethylene deposits and doesn't depend on gravel sluicing for its tax dollars.
