The Nodak Moose Legion donated 23 dozen “Tommy Moose” plush dolls to the North Dakota Highway Patrol on Saturday, Aug. 19. This effort was put together by the Junior Past President of Nodak 42 Moose Legion, Steve Foley of Minot’s Moose Lodge. The Tommy Moose program aids in helping children overcome fears and anxiety during times of stress. Donated to law enforcement, fire and other emergency workers, Tommy Moose plush dolls are presented to children in various traumatic situations. The N.D. Highway Patrol will have the Tommy Moose plush dolls available for officers to hand out to children during frightening times or stressful situations. “Thanks to the Nodak 42 Moose Legion, the Highway Patrol will continue to provide professional services to the public by handing out a Tommy Moose to children in need,” Maj. Tom Iverson said.
