Minneapolis, June 23 - The Minnesota Bio-Fuels Association (MN Bio-Fuels) and KS95 FM held a joint E15 promotion at a Holiday station in Coon Rapids yesterday.

“Unleaded 88 is a cleaner-burning, lower-cost option at the pump. We were glad to visit Coon Rapids yesterday with KS95 to highlight those benefits for consumers and give away a few prizes at the same time,” said Brian Werner, executive director at MN Bio-Fuels.

During the hour-long promotion, drivers who fueled up with E15 (Unleaded 88) were rewarded with prizes such as $20 in cash, tickets to Minnesota United, tickets to the St Paul Saints, Applebee’s gift cards and KS95 merchandise.

The promotion was held from 12 pm to 1 pm. The Holiday station is located at 10120 University Avenue in Coon Rapids.

Yesterday’s promotion was the fourth time MN Bio-Fuels and KS95 have teamed up at a station in the Twin Cities metro this year to promote E15. 

Meanwhile, according to the Minnesota Department of Commerce, 36.49 million gallons of E15 was sold in Minnesota from January to April this year.
