The temperature was below freezing on Friday, Dec. 31, but that didn’t stop people from participating in the Rettler Run to benefit the Wisconsin 9/11 Memorial and Education Center in Kewaskum.
The 5K run/walk was headed up by Pete Rettler, the dean of Moraine Park Technical College’s West Bend Campus, who has not missed a single day of running since making a New Year’s bet with a friend in 1993. Since then, Rettler has averaged running about 2.5 miles each day.
Our Mission: To build and sustain a 9/11 memorial to remember the victims, honor those who responded, celebrate the resilience of our communities and country, and educate future generations.
Make a monetary donation to support maintenance, events, and ongoing programming for the Memorial.
Purchase a red granite brick paver personalized for your family or business.
