The mission of the Wedge Bramhall memorial fund is to raise money for graduating high school students. Wedge had a passion for clean energy, agriculture, but most importantly he loved his community. We are now a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, 100% of the profits from the tournament will go towards scholarships for students entering college in the sustainable energy field. We hope that giving back to the students who share Wedge’s passion will keep his name and legacy alive for years to come.
Wedge grew up in Plymouth, MA in the heart of Chiltonville with his family raising sheep, cows and learning the ropes of running the Country Store from his mom and dad.
Wedge was a wild one growing up. When he graduated from high school and didn't get picked for the draft - him and his buddies converted an old school bus and went on a cross country trip in "The Magic Bus".
He moved to Hawaii for a few years.. homeless.. sleeping in dugouts at night and catching Yellowfin Tuna during the day. On his trip back to go get his dog and move there... he met Jami.
He retired from his crazy lifestyle to marry his soulmate and have 4 kids. Ben, Sam, Sally and Liz... Who made his life a different kind of crazy.
Wedge was a jack of all trades providing for his family. He was a real estate agent, a lobsterman, ran the family store, ran the family garden and snow plowed in the winter. Even with all of that, his favorite job was being a dad. He was at every single game, out in the yard with his glove every night playing catch, front and center taking pictures of every pitch, every race, every dirt bike trick. He taught the kids how to work at the store, run the garden, re-shingle the horse barn, mow the lawn, bait a hook, and many more life lessons.
He loved photography, being involved in the community, his family history, sunflowers, fishing, clamming, beach walks, kayaking, watching the sunset, a game of darts, Harpoon IPA, Milagro Tequila, and spending time with family.
In August of 2013 Wedge was diagnosed with Stage 4 Pancreatic Cancer. This disease came on extremely strong and the doctors said he only had a couple months left to live. Knowing Wedge, he knew that was a challenge he was going to overcome. Wedge went through that whole winter snow plowing. He plowed every storm...after chemo... 4 months past the date his doctors gave him.. knowing he didn't want to "disappoint the people who were relying on him". After the toughest fight the disease has probably ever seen, he lost his battle in April of 2014.
When Wedge was sick, Sal and Ben stopped everything in their life to take over the store. They've been working the past few years fine tuning the store, continuously progressing Wedge's vision of a community meeting place, a great meal, a friendly smile and HISTORY. Pure Plymouth History.
Sammy!!! The entrepreneur. The neighborhoods favorite electrician. Sam took a different route.. but still to Wedge's legacy: doing it his own way, making his own path. Serving his family and community everyday. Wedge guided him to Glynn Electric where he learned so much that he was able to go out on his own to do what he loves. Dad would be so proud!
And Liz! (Me). My dad loved clean energy all of his life. Always trying to find new, innovative ways to power his beach house, home and the store. One day when I was in high school he said I should go to Mass Maritime to do a new clean energy major - Energy Systems Engineering. I laughed... it was military and all my friends wanted to go to UMass. I went on the tour with him and later that day applied for early acceptance. He passed before he could see me there, but he was always my motivation. I've been working for a clean energy company for 5 years now and am so grateful for his influence.
To honor his memory, we started this tournament to get his friends, family, community and loved ones together. A day to remember Wedge and the impact he had on so many people. We welcome you to come join us to celebrate this incredible life! Maybe you'll be lucky enough to get a magic bus story from one of his buddies.....
