Red Grammer visits Beloit and performs for a local charity event

Red Grammer, who is no stranger to Beloit, visited the area Aug 14th and 15th. He performed at the Hailey Rath Memorial event 11am to noon on Aug. 15th. The event took place at The Rock Bar & Grill, west side of the Ken Hendricks Memorial Bridge. Red also hosted a "Fireside" at "The Castle" 501 Prospect St. Beloit Friday night. Also visiting, from Texas, is former Beloit resident Linda Assaf (Rath). Hailey was Linda's niece.

13 year old Hailey Rath was killed in a car crash in December of 2005.  Her parents, Jeff and Lisa Rath, have held a memorial event every year since 2006. Money raised during the event goes toward the University of Wisconsin Procurement Organization.
