Community Involvement

Manitowoc Youth Baseball/Softball

A non-profit corporation with its only objective to provide every child in our community the opportunity to play league baseball/softball (ages 4-15)

Randy led the $2.2 million capital campaign to raise the funds to build the Manitowoc Youth Sports Complex and is the current president of MYBA.

Being involved in this organization is the opportunity to have an impact on more than 650 youth in our community who participate and benefit from this program, providing them with a safe and healthy activity.

Gumby's Club Fore a Cure

What started out as a simple fundraiser in 2011 to raise $100 for Relay for Life ended in an outpouring of support and donations from family, friends, and co-workers. From here, Gumby's Club Fore a Cure was born. They now hold a large fundraising event annually, centered around a 5K Run/Walk, a fun 9-hole golf tournament and a 9-pin bowling event also featuring a live band, DJ, raffles, silent auction, food, and beverages. Every year they offer financial and moral support to help local families affected by cancer.

Randy and his wife, Connie, are core members of the event committee for Gumby's Club Fore a Cure.

Being involved with this program provides the opportunity to have a significant impact on helping local families who are affected by cancer by providing financial support to them during their most difficult times.

St. Francis of Assisi Parish

The Manitowoc Catholic Community of St. Francis of Assisi Parish exists as a sacramental body of Christ, to love as Christ loved, by boldly proclaiming our faith, teaching our youth, spreading the Good News of Jesus and serving one another and others in an ever-changing community. St. Francis of Assisi Parish is the largest parish in the Diocese of Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Randy and his wife, Connie, are the lead chairpeople of the St. Francis of Assisi Parish picnic, a three-day outdoor festival to help build community in this large parish of nearly 4,000 members. They also assist in the parish capital campaign and planning for several other special events.

Being involved in this event provides the opportunity to connect with others in the St. Francis of Assisi Parish and build up a sense of community through volunteering together to create an amazing, enjoyable event for all.
