“What started with the idea to buy a keg, grill some burgers, and celebrate the lives and legacies of Mike Duskin and Riley Stephens with their families has evolved into a highly organized event attended by over 1,000 people celebrating the lives of all fallen Special Operators and their families. Join us for a fun-filled family event to remember at this annual Sandhill’s favorite!”

“The Duskin and Stephens Foundation (DSF) is a charitable foundation that supports the Special Operations community through direct support to Gold Star Families, youth scholarships, and support to families of SOF soldiers. This foundation is run by active-duty members of the Special Operations and members of our community who understand current events around the world and how they impact service members and their families.
