Fourth annual Nick Would Foundation Divide ride was epic!!! Perfect weather, tacky dirt, fall trees in full color, and perfect crew. Thank you, Scott Fox for organizing and Matt Caron for the jerseys. Most of all thanks to each of you for making it happen. So much love out there and Nick was with us the whole way. One of Nick‘s favorite rides every fall. 💪🏼🤘🏼👊🏽🙏🏽❤️😎 taken in Continental Divide at Rabbit Ears Pass by @nickwouldfdn

🎶 WE ARE SO BACK 🤝 Come get your groove on Friday, June 19th at 5:30 PM at Howelsen Hill in Steamboat!

The Nick Would Foundation is once again sponsoring the Steamboat Free Summer Concert Series, featuring Lettuce with special guest Nigel Hall DJ Set. After another incredible year of supporting our mission, we’re excited to gather with our community for one of our favorite nights of the summer. You are all invited to join us in the VIP tent 🤫🥂🥳

We will be selling drinks and all your favorite Nick Would merch (hats, shirts, buffs, and more), with 100% of proceeds going directly back into the Nick Would Foundation so we can continue supporting our cause. Entry to the concert is free, but space in the VIP tent is LIMITED, so be sure to RSVP. While this is one of our biggest fundraisers of the year, we encourage everyone to support the foundation through merch purchases, drinks, donations, and the QR codes we’ll have available throughout the event 🤝❤️ & don’t forget the BBQ party at the Simon House following the event on Saturday June 20th @ 4pm!

There was nothing Nick loved more than playing and listening to music with his friends and family (and getting jiggy on the dance floor). He was a gifted singer-songwriter and an epic dancer—so let’s celebrate Nick the way we know best. Come enjoy an amazing night of music, community, and dancing under the Steamboat sky, and help us continue the work that meant so much to him.

🚨 IMPORTANT 🚨 To get on the list for the VIP tent, you will need to fill out an RSVP form using the link below (space is limited!):

https://forms.gle/bwbUyZLPUx9NmbR47

The RSVP link will also be available in our bio and on NickWould.com under the Events tab. We can’t wait to see everyone there for another unforgettable evening! 👀🎶❤️
