Dubuque’s 6th annual “Over the Edge” fundraiser will be taking place tomorrow morning in downtown. 70 local volunteers are scheduled to rappel over the edge of the 13-story MidwestOne Bank building between 11 and 6 raising money for United Way of Dubuque.
To participate in the event, each rappeler must raise a minimum of $12-hundred dollars for United Way of the Dubuque Area Tri-States. Rappelers can raise money as an individual or team. A team of 25 people from Cottingham and Butler has raised more than $45-thousand dollars for the event.
Everyone is encouraged to come watch as each person scales up Dubuque’s tallest building at a ground party near the corner of 9th and Main Streets.
