Jeep Jam takes on cancer

If you are cruising around Door County in your Jeep this weekend, The Thirsty Cow Taphouse in Baileys Harbor hopes you duck on in for a good cause. For the second year in a row, the business is hosting its Door County Jeep Jam Cancer Benefit from 9:30 a.m. until 8 p.m. Last year, nearly 60 Jeep enthusiasts cruised around the county together before spending the rest of the day with other community members at the restaurant for food, music, and other revelry to raise thousands of dollars for DoorCancer. Holly Butenhoff from The Thirsty Cow Taphouse says the money that goes to DoorCancer supports many different things that Door County families need when dealing with cancer.

The early fall is a popular time for many organizations to hold fundraisers ahead of Breast Cancer Awareness Month. Last year, several area volleyball teams supported other cancer-related charities by dedicating a home game to the cause. Kewaunee School District is expanding on that concept next month when they do their Kewaunee High School Take Cancer By Storm event at the soccer (10/7), volleyball (10/10), and football (10/11) games.
