Students at Siouxland Christian School here in Sioux City got a special treat heading into their Christmas vacation Friday.
Siouxland Dairy Queen threw them a party because the school won a “Battle of the Blizzards” fundraising competition with other metro area high schools.
Steven Hill of Siouxland Dairy Queen says in November, each school was paired with a specific Blizzard treat, and 50 cents was donated back to the respective school each time their blizzard was purchased;
OC……number one school. :11
Each student received an Oreo Hot Cocoa Blizzard at the party.
School Development Director Kelli Heilbuth says the funds will be used in a new academic program:
OC………..as well. ;18
The school won an additional $1,000.00 for finishing first.
Siouxland Dairy Queen donated more than $6,700.00 to the six Sioux City metro high schools participating in the Battle of the Blizzards.
