2nd Annual "Tuggin' for Kids"







The 2nd annual tug of war over a mud pit was held September 11, 2007. It brought out over 200 people to watch the action and pull to end childhood hunger in the Cedar Valley. The competition between the 11 participating teams was fierce while tuggin’ on the rope for the win. The Black Hawk County Sheriff’s Department dug in their heels and out tugged all the teams to take the event win and 2007 braggin’ rights. However, the real winners are the children in the Cedar Valley who are hungry because the funds (over $13,000) raised at this event go toward ending childhood hunger in the Cedar Valley.
