The athletic departments at Concordia, Minnesota State University Moorhead and NDSU have developed a creative way to raise funds for the Salvation Army in Fargo. The mascot from each university will be at the main entrance of West Acres Shopping Center ringing the Salvation Army bells on Saturday, Dec. 12, from 12:30 p.m. to 3 p.m.

The Student Athletic Advisory Councils from each institution are taking the lead to arrange the bell ringers. This will be an opportunity for people to meet some of the great athletes on our local teams.

All funds raised will be used to meet the needs of families and individuals in Cass and Clay counties during the year ahead.
