Project Footsteps in Mason City Saturday to battle bullying

by Matt Marquardt –

MASON CITY – Project Footsteps, an anti-bullying group founded in Minneapolis, is in Mason City today for a series of stops to promote their cause and a new partnership with the Mason City School District.

(PHOTO: Youngsters from the Twin Cities area gather at the north side of the Mason City Fire station to scrub cars for a good cause on Saturday morning.)

A group of youngsters from the Twins Cities area associated with the group are enthusiastically scrubbing and  buffing cars and trucks at a free car wash, that is still currently underway at the Mason City Fire Department, on the north side of the building.  You can get your car washed there until 2 PM.  Donations are appreciated.

Then at 3 PM, a “surprise” event will be held at the Mason city Aquatic Center.

Finally, at 3:30 PM, another event will be held at the North Iowa Events Center.

If you are against bullying, you might want to stop out at any of these three locations and show your support.

Don’t miss the free car wash Saturday until 2 PM in Mason City.
