**NEW THIS YEAR**
Silent auction: In honor of “River Rat Randy Stevens” we will be starting a Silent Auction, this year we will be making a donation to foundation he held dear to his heart “Saint Jude’s children’s hospital”.
After discussing with his son Robert Stevens, we will be continuing a new tradition being next year, of giving back and having an annual silent auction during the tournament and our hope is to start a scholarship for a high school senior called “River Rat Randy Stevens Scholarship”.
Our goal is that by 2022, we will have enough funds ready to go for kids to apply and enough money for 2 scholarships.
RRR was all about kids and growing up in the outdoors, giving back and making sure our communities youth had opportunities. With that being said it takes a village to raise donations and accomplish giving back, therefore any donation inquiries can be sent to: [email protected] or call Rachel @ 651-343-6154.
Anything and everything is deeply appreciated for the auction.
