MOORHEAD - The city of Moorhead and Minnesota State University Moorhead are teaming up to provide free child care for parents who want to help fill sandbags tonight.
MSUM's athletic department has organized a "Kids Night Out" for youths 7-12 at MSUM's Wellness center on 14th Street, halfway between Ninth Avenue and Sixth Avenue on the west side of the street.
Normally there is a $20 fee for such an event, but parents who sandbag will receive vouchers at Moorhead's sandbagging site at 700 15th Avenue North, which can be used for reimbursement.
For more information, contact Jacob Topp at (218) 477-2647.
Tonight's sandbagging hours at the Moorhead sandbagging site are from 6 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.

Moorhead's sandbagging operation is typically open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., but the facility has been staying open longer when volunteers want to keep working.
