The highlight of the evening was the recognition of former Wisconsin Governor Marty Schreiber for his outstanding advocacy and work supporting the Alzheimer’s cause. Schreiber, who cared for his late wife Elaine during her battle with Alzheimer's, received the game ball and addressed attendees during the pregame.
