The Walk by Faith Gala was debuted in 2025 to honor the vibrant legacy of Faith Nelson, Maddy’s sister, who passed away in 2023 as a result of a snowmobile accident. She was a talented potter, excelled on the volleyball court and softball field and enjoyed hiking, camping and hunting. Faith loved life, lived it to the fullest, and consistently honored her sister Maddy by loving acts of kindness.
