Backstory: A few months ago, Jake Yakey and the team at Antigo Yamaha called Vickie Reetz at WWU of WI to explain that they wanted to nominate the organization to win one of 3 units being awarded to service organizations in Wisconsin. “We are so impressed with the work that WWU of Wisconsin does for veterans we couldn’t think of another organization that so deserves this honor. There was a definite need for this unit and we are so excited that Can Am agreed and made this possible!” – Jake Yakey, Antigo Yamaha.
“This is amazing. I still cannot believe we won this! I am so excited as to what this will do for our ability to help more veterans when it comes to outdoor hunting and fishing and other outdoor adventures.
Many of our older veterans have mobility challenges, or weather sensitivity and it limits their ability to ice fish, get into the field etc. This Can Am Defender is going to be a real game changer as we will be able to solve those challenges in a way we never could before. This is so exciting – we could never have something like this on our own. We are so grateful to Jake Yakey and Antigo Yamaha for nominating us and to Can Am for this unbelievable award and partnership” - Otto Reetz, President of WWU of Wisconsin
“We are definitely going to celebrate this new partnership with everyone! The presentation ceremony will be complete with a brat/hot dog fry for the first 75 people! All veterans and those who support our mission are invited to join us at Country Haven Farm for this amazing event and historical day in the history and now brighter future for Wounded Warriors United of Wisconsin. Saying Thank You to Can Am and Jake/Antigo Yamaha just is not enough to express how we feel. “– Vickie Reetz, VP of Wounded Warriors United of WI
