Victorville Daily Press
A nearly 20-foot-tall inflatable duck named “Quackals” stands along Palmdale Road in Victorville heralding the opening of the new Quick Quack Car Wash.
Quick Quick officials told the Daily Press the company’s first Victor Valley location had a soft opening on Feb. 2, with a grand opening celebration this week that includes free car washes, prize giveaways and a fundraiser for 22-year-old Marcus Hilton, who lives in Victorville and has cerebral palsy.
During the fundraiser, scheduled from 3 to 6 p.m. Monday, instead of charging for car washes, the Victorville location will ask customers for donations.

Physicians at Loma Linda University Medical Center (LLUMC) – Murrieta have completed 200 transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) procedures in two years, making it the first center to reach this milestone in the southwest Riverside County community.
“Two hundred TAVR procedures in two years is a major milestone for any cardiac program, especially considering the challenges we faced during COVID-19,” interventional cardiologist Harit Desai said. Desai is the associate director for the cardiac catheterization lab and structural heart intervention program at Loma Linda University Medical Center – Murrieta. “We are very happy to be able to continue providing TAVR and other cardiac procedures to our patients in a timely fashion.”
