Day of the Dozers 2023 raises more than $95,000 for new brain surgery suite at Children’s Minnesota, fundraising efforts continue

Children’s Minnesota is thrilled to announce the family-fun event Day of the Dozers 2023 paved the way to raise more than $95,000 for the organization’s hybrid intraoperative MRI (iMRI) neurosurgery suite. The state-of-the-art Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation iMRI Surgical Suite is the first of its kind in North America.

During the popular annual event at ERX Motor Park in Elk River, Minnesota, kids experienced the thrill of riding in massive construction vehicles alongside a certified machine operator.
