Dickey's Barbecue Pit Gives Back to the Community

LINCOLN, Neb., Nov. 17, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 12th Dickey's will be donating 10% of all sales from the entire day to the Cornhusker chapter of the American Red Cross.  

According to owner Will Carter, "The American Red Cross supports our community by helping us during some of the toughest times of our lives.   We never know when tragedy will strike but thanks to the American Red Cross we will be prepared."

This may be the first time that the store has hosted a fundraising event that encourages customers to contribute but the Dickey's store owner has always been an active member in his community.  He has supported several missionaries and "feels it is important to give back to the community and lend a hand to those in need.  Dickey's is more than just a restaurant, it is a friendly environment where people meet-up and talk.  It's so exciting for me to create these relationships with both our employees and guests.  I look forward to seeing the regulars and meeting new people every day!"
