2025 Widows Sons Wisconsin Grand Master’s Ride raised money, fun

I cannot believe it!!! The 2025 Grand Master Ride has been and gone already which was our 5th Annual ride, What a huge turnout this year! Brothers and Sisters Traveled from the North, South and West to be with us on this event.

The ride was led by Brothers from the Glenn L. Humphrey Lodge. Peddling the bicycle is Brother Ed Cooke, riding are Brothers Duane Bunting (left) and Don Haas. 

One of the biggest highlights for this year’s Ride was the most Grand Master Jeffrey S. Schoenfeldt was present for the whole event! From the Pre-Ride Party at my Estate, he rode the whole ride with “Toxic” (Past President) of WI Keystone Chapter on his trike. The Grand Master was smiling from ear to ear all day and was happily waving at everyone we passed, (some might say a royal wave). 

Residents and workers at Three Pillars Senior Living lined the parade route, smiling and waving as the big engines roared through the scenic campus

We travelled north through the Kettle Moraine to Bildas Fries Lake Pub where we were welcomed for cold beverages. Some bikes fueled back up and, we travelled south to Concord Inn were Magellan got some help from ‘Rukus’ a Brother from the South. We celebrated at our final stop, Honey Lake Inn, in Burlington with cold refreshments and burgers and corn cooked by our very own RePete what a fine job he does too. A raffle was had with some tremendous raffle baskets which had been donated.

We are now looking forward and planning for 2026 GM. Our current Grand Master has already said he is also coming back as he enjoyed it so much. Let’s make 2026 bigger and better still!

Our entertainment this year at our Pre-Ride Party was provided by the ‘Chuckleheads’ a youth band from Johnson Creek School District, ranging from ages 12-15. They performed for donations to support the Summer School Theater Production and they raised on the night $160. The Green Dragon Chapter is matching their donation and will be presenting a check for $320 to the school. 

We still have some 2025 Grand Master challenge coin for a small donation of $20+ Shipping which helps support the Grand Master’s charity of choice. Feel free to email richrpm@hotmail.co.uk, text me at 414-239-5826 or Venmo@Richard-Moulding and we can ship it to you. 

Thank you to everyone for supporting the Widows Sons!
