Day of the Dozers Sets $40,000 Goal!

ERX Motor Park, Elk River
Saturday, September 24, 9 AM – 3:30 PM

MUCA’s committee for the Day of the Dozers charity event has set a fundraising goal of $40,000 for this year. We are expecting another record crowd of over 4,000 parents and children, along with the dozens of operators and volunteers that make this event rock!

As you know, last year we raised $30,590 for Children’s Hospitals & Clinics, which sponsored an Infusion Room for children with cancer and blood disorders. This year, we are dedicating our funds to the new special family service area for Children’s, The Ronald McDonald House in St. Paul.

The Committee is planning additional gates on the more popular rides (dozers & excavators) to keep the wait times reasonable, and we’re also planning on additional food trucks to serve hungry families.

Are you interested in volunteering, donating or participating? Helping a good cause is always worth the time and effort! Please visit the Day of the Dozers website and join in the fun!

A Special Session in August?

Could it be? Rumors have it that legislative leaders and Gov. Dayton are working on the terms for a special session. There are three major items left to resolve from the 2016 session: comprehensive transportation funding, a tax bill and a bonding bill. Read the Ewald at the Capitol Update here.
