2010 Food Dash Results
Posted by Steve Frazier
Congratulations to everyone who participated in the 5th Annual Cub Foods/Rotary Food Dash on Tuesday, October 12th. All together, $11,644.62 was raised for the ICA Food Shelf. The Dash was featured on KARE 11 last and we hope to see articles in the Lake Shore Weekly and Sun Sailor newspapers soon.
Our two Rotary Clubs and Cub Foods donated the $4,972.31 each to match the shopping spree of the three dash teams. Cub Foods also donated $1,200 in gift certificates to the raffle winners who in turn presented them to the ICA Food Shelf. Finally, in commemoration of the 5th year of the event, an additional $500 was raised by Dash participants and supporters for the ICA Food Shelf.
Here are the team results totaling $4,972.31:
1st place raising $1,911.06 – Roger Ackley, Eden Prairie. and Tonka Bay Mayor Bill LaBelle (who was on the first place team last year as well!).
2nd place raising $1,771.19 – Idelle Bjelleland, Tonka Bay, and Excelsior Mayor Nick Ruehl.
3rd place raising $1,290.06 – Allison Lang, Chaska and Greenwood Mayor Debra Kind.
Roger Ackley ($500), Idelle Bjelleland ($400), and Allison Lang ($300) donated their winnings to the ICA Food Shelf. Other participants and supporters donated $500 in commemoration of the 5th running of the Dash.
This brings the total contributions to $61,000 from this event to the ICA Food Shelf over the last five years.
Thank you all and see you next year at the 6th Annual Dash for Hunger! (Story by Bruce Trippet and posting and photo by Steve Frazier)
