Moorhead Dairy Queen opens despite snowfall
MOORHEAD, Minn. -- People who lined up for opening day at the Moorhead Dairy Queen were surrounded by blizzards - both the weather-related kind and the kind that makes for a delicious treat.
The Moorhead DQ opens every year on March 1, a tradition that they carried on this year, despite snowfall.
The Moorhead location opened in 1949, and is one of the original stores in the Dairy Queen system. Because it operates on an older contract, the store is allowed to dish out some unique recipes.
In past years, hundreds of people have showed up for opening day.
