Every Wednesday through the month of August Buffalo Wild Wings in St. Cloud will donate 10 percent of diners’ bills to a fund to build the fence for the Pinecone Central Dog Park in Sartell.
Diners should be sure to tell the server at the restaurant they want part of their meal’s cost to go to the dog park’s “Help Build the Fence” fundraiser.
Buffalo Wild Wings is located at 3701 Division St. Meals for donations will be served from 11 a.m.-10 p.m. during the three Wednesdays left in August: the 13, the 20 and the 27.
DogPAC, a group of dog enthusiasts, has been trying to raise funds for a fence for a dog park, as well as other amenities. The City of Sartell has approved land for the dog park in the north section of the new city park, site of the former Sartell Golf Course.
There are other ongoing ways to donate to the dog-park fund.
- Make out a check payable to “Initiative Foundation-Sartell DogPAC Fund” and mail it to Initiative Foundation, 405 First St. SE, Little Falls, MN 56345.
- Donate by debit or credit card by calling, emailing or providing the card information to Initiative Foundation at 877-632-9255 or at info@ifound.org.
