The Capital Area United Way officially kicks off its 2021-22 fundraising campaign this evening (July 9) at the Pierre Trappers baseball game.
Campaign co-chair Lonnie Heier says CAUW will have giveaways and fun activities.
Heier says this year’s campaign theme is Be the G.O.A.T.
A goat mascot will help with this year’s fundraising and Heier says the public gets to vote on its name by going to the Capital Area United Way website.
The CAUW fundraising kickoff wraps up with a fireworks show at Hyde Stadium after the Pierre Trappers game.
