As its third consecutive season of wagering on trotters under saddle nears, Racing Under Saddle Ontario will be holding its popular cookie dough fundraiser, which will get underway on February 14.

RUS Ontario is a non-profit organization that relies on sponsorship and fundraising money to assist with advertising and promotional efforts throughout the racing season.

In-Dey-Go, from Canmore, Alberta, donates a percentage of its cookie dough sales to non-profit organizations. For $15, purchasers will receive 48 pre-portioned 1 0z. cookies that can be thawed and refrozen. Ten flavours are offered, with a gluten-free option coming in 2.7 Ib. tubes, yielding 45-50 cookies. All- natural dog cookie dough is also available.

Flavors include:

• Chocolate chunk
• Oatmeal coconut chocolate chunk

• White chocolate macadamia nut
• Dark chocolate white chocolate chunk
• The Mother Lode (contains whole wheat flour, oats, pecans, sunflower seeds and raisins)
