The annual Dairy Queen Miracle Treat Day will be Thursday, August 8, 2013.

100% of the proceeds from the sale of Dairy Queen Blizzards will be donated to Children’s Hospital of Illinois. Dairy Queen locations in Peoria, Bloomington, Washington, Morton, Pontiac, and Canton are participating.

Local Dairy Queens raised $23,000 last year to benefit children and their families at Children’s Hospital.
