To help inspire fans to take part, Olympic gold medalist and figure skating icon Tara Lipinski is teaming up with DQ to encourage fans nationwide to enjoy a Blizzard Treat while giving back to children and families in their own communities.

“I’m honored to partner with Dairy Queen for Miracle Treat Day and help shine a light on the incredible work happening at children’s hospitals across the country,” said Tara Lipinski. “It’s amazing that something as simple as enjoying a Blizzard Treat can help provide hope and support to kids and their families. I hope everyone joins me on July 30 to make every Blizzard Treat count.”

“The Savannah Bananas are all about creating smiles, and Miracle Treat Day is another great way to bring joy and hope to families who need it most,” said right fielder Reese Alexiades. “After visiting a Children’s Miracle Network hospital and seeing so many brave kids and their families, it reminded us how powerful communities can be and something as simple as purchasing a Blizzard Treat on Miracle Treat Day can help make a real difference,” said center fielder David “DR” Meadows.
