Mayor Angie Nelson Deuitch of Michigan City and Mayor Tom Dermody of La Porte are both ready for a friendly battle to support The Salvation Army in their annual Battle of the Mayors.
On Friday, December 20 the Mayors will compete to see who can raise the most funds in their red kettle.
Mayor Angie will be at Al’s Supermarket on Karwick Plaza in Michigan City from 10am to 7pm. Mayor Dermody will be at Kroger in La Porte from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
They are asking you to support this event and drop some money in the kettle in your city that day.
The winner of this competition will be La Porte County residents who are served by Salvation Army programs and services.
