2025 Salute to Service

In 2025, The Cpl. Christopher Kelly Willis Foundation is excited to once again partner with the Kalamazoo Growlers for "Salute to Service Night" as they take on the Royal Oak Leprechauns!

Join us for an evening dedicated to honoring the brave men and women of our armed services and supporting their families. The Corporal Christopher Kelly Willis Foundation invites you to partake in our partnership with the Kalamazoo Growlers of the Northwoods League.

During this special event, we will have the privilege of presenting scholarships to Elea Riney and James Riney who are the children of American hero, Sgt. Douglas J. Riney who was killed in action in Afghanistan.

Sgt. Riney's dedication epitomized the spirit of service and sacrifice.

Join us as we honor Sgt. Riney's legacy and show our support for his children's future. Your attendance and support will make a meaningful difference in the lives of these deserving young individuals.

Thank you for standing with us in honoring our nation's heroes and ensuring their families are supported.
