Scott Hautamaki’s vision is to honor both his late wife, Sandy, who passed away last year, and his Gold Star stepson, Marine Ryan Cantafio, KIA 11/25/04. What better way to accomplish this honoring than to do a fundraiser for the Gold Star Memorial Trail (GSMT)?

The GSMT was extremely important to Sandy, Ryan’s mother, and so was her band, Alexis, a family band she headlined in for years. The Marines behind this effort with Scott are honored to line up behind Scott’s vision for what is clearly a noble cause.

Building up to Alexis’s Farwell Performance, there will be an additional three musical acts: Joliana, Dan Braaksma & Al Muenchow, and the Wurlitzer Kings (featuring Beaver Dam’s own Eddie Rivers)

This event will take place on Saturday, June 22, 2024, at Tower Lanes, 1660 N Spring St, Beaver Dam, WI 53916.

Estimated time of event – 11:00 a.m. to 11:00 p.m.

50/50 raffles will be run during the event.

An Information Table about the GSMT will be on hand and staffed for the event with GSMT merchandise for sale.

AND MUCH MORE! Additional activities for this event are still in the planning stages so…MORE INFORMATION TO COME! Follow the Friends Of Dodge County Parks, Inc. (FODCPI) Facebook Page for future details.
