Hosted by the Reach Foundation, Spuds & Suds is the REACH Museum’s signature annual fundraising event, bringing together community leaders, local businesses, supporters, and friends for an evening of great food, local beverages, inspiring stories, and meaningful giving.

This year’s event proudly honors Steve and Shirley Simmons for their exceptional leadership, generosity, and longstanding commitment to strengthening our community.
