(Wiota, Iowa) – Joining forces, the Wiota Fire Department and Wiota Community Boosters are excited to announce their annual fundraiser, a comedy night, is back! It happens Friday, February 11, 2022, and Saturday, February 12, 2022, at the Wiota Fire Department. Doors open both nights at 6:30 pm with the comedian starting at 8:00 pm.

After putting the annual fundraiser on hold last year due to COVID, officials with the Wiota Fire Department says they’re gearing up to bring back their annual Valentine’s Day weekend fundraiser event. To that end, they are currently raising funds to purchase a much-needed new truck for their department. Officials say Wiota has seen a recent surge in revitalization with the Wiota Community Boosters banding back together around a shared goal and vision of renovating the city park. Because of this, the Wiota Fire Department has decided to combine forces with them to put on this fundraising event, which will now benefit both the Wiota Fire Department and the Wiota Community Boosters. Proceeds for the Wiota Community Boosters will be ear marked for their “Let’s Build a Playground” initiative, which serves as phase one for the city park renovation project.

Tickets for the comedy night are $30/person and good for one night only. Be sure to specify if you’d like tickets for the Friday night or Saturday night event when purchasing. Your ticket gets
you in the door and a robust charcuterie board at your table. A bar will be available all evening, and drink tickets can be purchased at the door upon arrival and throughout the evening. The
doors will open each evening at 6:30 pm for drinks, food and mingling and then the comedian, Mark Poolos, will start at 8:00 pm. Seating is limited each evening and tickets are anticipated to
sell quickly!
