The “about” part limits our word amount 🙂

In 1999 we lost our loved one, Josh Haugen, to a jet ski accident. And unfortunately he’s just one of many people that lose their lives every year on the water.

Our goals are to help bring light to the risks of boating/water activities and to support the only water rescue team in the area, the Rapid City/Pennington County Water Rescue Team. Our fundraisers help the WRT purchase the equipment they need to be as successful as possible when there is an emergency.

Being on the water is one of the funnest activities to do with friends and family and we want to make sure that we can all enjoy it safely.
