Riiser Fuels LLC Pride Pump Donates to Marathon City 2020’s The Power of Community Campaign

Riiser Fuels LLC has donated more than $350 to the Marathon City 2020 LTD’s The Power of Community Campaign benefiting the Heritage Center and building project.

Riiser Fuels’ R-Store Pride Pump, located at 401 Main St. in Marathon, WI, currently donates 2¢ per gallon pumped to the Marathon School District Foundation Endowment Fund. Between August 1-31, 2018, the Riiser Fuels organization committed to donate an additional 1¢ per gallon to MC2020’s campaign to raise money for a new Heritage Center Park. At the end of August, the R-Store Pride Pump had collected nearly $351.40, and Riiser Fuels presented Marathon City 2020 with the check in September 2018.

The Pride Pump contribution supports MC2020’s efforts to transform the worn-out parking lot and abandoned bank drive-thru on the Heritage Center property into an environmentally friendly and inviting greenspace. This “pocket park” will feature a covered stage, raised planting beds with built-in seating, a transitional area for additional seating or entertainment, bike racks and more so it can serve as a multifunctional place for education, relaxation, entertainment, and cultural attractions. MC2020 has already corrected issues with the Heritage Center's front cornice and installed a new visually appealing sign. An official groundbreaking for the park project was held on September 1.

“Riiser Fuels’ Pride Pump contributions have demonstrated their commitment and longstanding support for growth and development in the Village of Marathon City,” said Edee Zuleger, president of MC2020. “We have raised enough funds to officially start the project this year.”
