ArnoldPatch caught up with Arnold Historical Society's President Bernie Wilde at a fundraiser on July 24 at Culver's restaurant.

The society recieved 10 percent of all sales that occurred between 5-8 p.m. at the restaurant, Wilde said. The total amount raised was not immediately available. But check back with Arnold Patch to learn how the society fared. 

Wilde wore a Culvers apron and talked with customers during the evening.

Family members from the city's namesake founders ate at the restaurant, as did a few city council members and their families.
