Grant/Iowa County Tavern League Supports Wisconsin Badger Camp


Wisconsin Badger Camp is proud to announce it is the recipient of a $5,000 donation from the Grant/Iowa County Tavern League. This donation is designated as a community sponsorship for the 39th Annual Christmas Telethon, produced on Saturday, December 1st at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville.  

The Grant/Iowa County Tavern League raised $2,500 through their annual Golf Outing on Monday, July 30th at Dodge Point Country Club in Dodgeville, WI.  Golfers enjoyed a day of raffle prizes, golf, and friendly competition.  The Tavern League Foundation and the Tavern League 3rd district will be matching $2,500 of the funds.

“On behalf of our volunteer board of directors, our staff, and most importantly our campers, we would like to thank the Grant and Iowa County Tavern League for their dedicated support,” Wisconsin Badger Camp Executive Director Brent Bowers said. “The Wisconsin Tavern League truly has been instrumental in helping Badger Camp grow,” Bowers said.  To date, the Grant/Iowa County Tavern League has raised over $95,000 for Wisconsin Badger Camp with this annual event.
