About this event
- Event lasts 4 hours
For a little over a year, Brian Winkelman has been fighting one of the toughtest battles of his life, facing rehab with grit, grace, and quiet courage after a fall from a ladder where he fractured his neck, resulting in a severe spinal cord injury. This has left him temporarily immobile and dependent on a ventilator. Now it's our turn to rally around him as he strives to get up, moving, and breathing fully on his own again. We are believing that he WILL do it by the grace of God!
Join us at the Grumpy Goat Tavern on the Highlands of Elgin Golf Course in Elgin, IL for a fun night of trivia and a silent auction to support the cost of multiple therapies and ongoing caregiving for our determined superhero. Grab a group of friends and compete for the Trivia Masters Title! There will be a buffet dinner, 2 alcoholic drink tickets, and 2 hours of Trivia by Nick at Night Entertainment - all included in the ticket price. Minimum age to attend is 16 years old. Looking forward to seeing you there!
