MANITOWOC – Ascend Services has opened registration and sponsorship opportunities for its seventh annual Throw With All Your Heart fundraiser, happening April 11 at Tapped on the Lakeshore in Two Rivers.
The popular community event helps support Ascend’s mission of empowering youth and adults with disabilities across Manitowoc County.
The high‑energy team competition features five fan‑favorite games: ax throwing, golf, Hammerschlagen, shuffleboard and cornhole.
A highlight each year is the Celebrity Axe Throwing Challenge, where seven local personalities compete for bragging rights — and attendees can challenge them for just $5. The celebrity lineup will be announced soon.
Back for 2026 are the event’s silent auction, wine pull and all‑day 50/50 raffle.
Ascend Executive Director Deanna Genske said the fundraiser continues to grow each year, helping the organization provide vital community experiences, education and employment opportunities.
Registration is available at ascendservicesinc.org with additional details on Ascend’s Facebook event page. Those interested in sponsoring can contact Genske at 920‑682‑4663.
