Camp Courageous pineapple sales now taking place

     The 43rd Annual Pineapple Sales for Camp Courageous began July 27 and runs through Sunday, Aug. 9, at over 30 Hy-Vee stores located throughout Eastern Iowa.

     Something that started as a dream of a few United Airlines employees back in 1978 has turned into one of Camp Courageous’ largest annual fundraisers.

     Hv-Vee stores compete with each other on displays, money raised, and having other special events in their stores for Camp Courageous.

     “It has become a wonderful tradition for the stores and the shoppers,” according to Hy-Vee staff.

     This year’s pineapples are $1.99 with $1 going to Camp Courageous. New this year: the Camp Courageous Manchester Garage Sale is joining Hy-Vee as a location to purchase pineapples.
