Moore Memorial fundraiser Friday

Local businesses in Kootenai County are coming together on Friday, May 5, to honor Sgt. Greg Moore by donating a portion of their proceeds from the day to the McEuen Park K27 Water Memorial.

May 5 will mark two years since Sgt. Moore was shot in the line of duty. Now the community is coming together to create a place that will allow residents and visitors to remember and meditate on the sacrifices made by our men and women in blue.

In early 2016, the Coeur d’Alene City Council voted to support the construction of the water feature. The Panhandle Parks Foundation, in partnership with the City of Coeur d’Alene, have been raising funds for the construction of the McEuen Park K27 Water Feature, which is expected to break ground mid May.

The following businesses in Kootenai County have confirmed they will be participating in the fundraiser on May 5: Buffalo Wild Wings, Capone’s, The Fedora, Franko’s Dog House, Nate’s Pizza, North Idaho Cider, Rogers Burgers, Schaffers Towing, Strike Zone Arena, Sun Valley Tree Service and Sweet Lou’s.
