Morrison dog park fair booth offers raffle, other ways to donate
Morrison Mayor Scott Vandermyde helps out Thursday at the On the Move with Parks and Rec booth at the Whiteside County Fair. At the booth, which is open until 7 tonight and until 4 p.m. Saturday, people can vote with donations for their favorite dog picture, and also sign up for a raffle for a fire pit. On view at the booth are dog houses built by Jim Strating that will be sold in a silent auction at the Dog Days of Summer Pooch Picnic, being held from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sept. 18, after the annual Harvest Hammer 5k in Morrison. Money raised is being used to build a dog park in Morrison. (submitted)
