This fundraising event will benefit the new Moorhead Public Library, which will open Spring 2026 in a new facility named The Loop (450 Center Ave. in downtown Moorhead). The Loop will house the library’s collection, resources and services alongside additional amenities such as an indoor walking track, playground and resource center for entrepreneurs called the Spark Center.
