WITTENBERG, Wis. (WAOW) – A night of boxing, entertainment and community impact is coming to Wittenberg this weekend as Ho-Chunk Gaming Wittenberg partners with Williams House of Hope for Fight Night: Brawl in the Backwoods.<\/p>\n
The event, organized by Quicksilver Hill Sports and Entertainment, will feature local and regional boxers competing in the ring while raising money for a cause outside of it.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re having a boxing event tomorrow. They can expect a lot of excitement,\u201d said Jessica White Wing-Clark, Public Relations Manager. \u201cEntertainment is going to be off the hook. It\u2019s one of my favorite events that we have because of the energy of the boxers.\u201d<\/p>\n
A portion of every ticket sold will benefit Williams House of Hope, a nonprofit organization that provides support and resources for individuals experiencing homelessness.<\/p>\n
\u201cJust know that every ticket is going towards a great cause,\u201d says\u00a0Nicole Barron, owner of Williams House of Hope.<\/p>\n
For organizers, the event is also an opportunity to showcase Wisconsin boxing talent and give local athletes a platform to compete.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe want to give kids in the local area an opportunity to shine,\u201d says Virgil Hill, Boxer Promoters Quicksilver Hill Sports & Entertainment. \u201cWe want them to come out and see the talent that they have in Wisconsin.\u201d<\/p>\n
Quicksilver Hill Sports and Entertainment is led by husband-and-wife team Virgil and Denean Hill, both Olympians who say their experiences have shaped their commitment to creating opportunities for young athletes.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy wife is a four-time Olympian and I\u2019m an Olympian. We met in the 1984 Olympics,\u201d says Virgil. \u201cWe understand and we know the feelings.\u201d<\/p>\n
The organization\u2019s long-term goal is to help increase opportunities for Native American athletes and encourage greater representation at the Olympic level.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur ultimate goal is to help Native athletes be represented in the Olympics on the Olympic team as their own country,\u201d says\u00a0Denean Hill.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
While athletes in Wisconsin may not have access to the same year-round opportunities as those in larger states, Hill believes success is still within reach.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey can, just because they don\u2019t have as many opportunities as everybody else, but you can succeed,\u201d says Virgil.<\/p>\n
Nicole Barron with Williams House of Hope hopes community members will come out not only to enjoy the fights but also to support those in need.<\/p>\n
\u201cHelp us in the fight to help our unhoused,\u201d says Barron.<\/p>\n
A free public weigh-in will take place Friday night. Fight Night: Brawl in the Backwoods is scheduled for Saturday at Ho-Chunk Gaming Wittenberg.<\/p>\n
