The Al Aska Shriners kicked off their annual onion sales fundraiser on Tuesday morning. The state Shriners group has sold "Vidalia Onions" in their fundraiser for over 25 years. The Shriners are selling about 33,000 pounds of Vidalia Onions grown in Vidalia, Georgia. The onions grow in soil that contains low amounts of sulfur, giving them their unusually sweet flavor. They were harvested from a farm about two weeks ago and sent to Alaska by ground delivery. A spokesperson for the Shriners group said the money helps them raise money to operate their club and provides funding for them to go on parades in various communities.

The Shriners are selling Vidalia Onions to benefit children with disabilities. Every year 32,000 pounds of onions and sauces are flown up from Georgia for the fundraiser. Half of the onions stay in Anchorage. The other half are sent out for sale across Alaska. This year the group says it expects to sell out in record time-- seven days. The money raised goes toward medical treatments and prosthetics for children in Alaska. "Here in Alaska we have two clinics a year and we bring upward to, on any given two days, 150 to 200 patients on those two days," said Al Aska Shrine Past Potenate Ken Krasselt.
