Hundreds of community members recently came together to celebrate the Fifth Annual “Kiefer’s Magical Birthday Bash,” a two-day, family-friendly event held at Wild Ride Brewing in Prineville and Redmond. Hosted by Rimrock Trails in partnership with Wild Ride Brewing, the celebration offered an engaging mix of live music, great food, and meaningful conversations focused on mental health awareness. Attendees enjoyed dancing, raffle drawings, and auctions featuring unique gift items, while connecting with family and friends in a festive and welcoming environment.
Following Kiefer’s death, the Leutschaft family partnered with Rimrock Trails to establish the Kiefer Magical Legacy Fund. One of the primary goals of this event is to reduce the stigma often associated with mental health challenges by fostering open, honest conversations about mental health and addiction. The initiative also encourages individuals to seek support services and take meaningful steps toward recovery and long-term well-being.
This event exemplifies just how much can be accomplished when groups of people and organizations come together with a commitment to the mental health of our community. Working together, the magic is kept alive.
“Supporting the Kiefer Magic Legacy Fund and its mission to uplift mental health awareness and vulnerable youth made the day especially powerful,” said Ann Cronin, a Rimrock Trails volunteer. “It was a beautiful reminder of why this work matters and how resilience, community and compassion can shine through even the stormiest moments.”
The “Kiefer’s Magical Birthday Bash’ was made possible thanks to the efforts and donations of multiple individuals and businesses. Special thanks and appreciation go to the presenting sponsor, Wild Ride Brewing, and the inspiration of the Leutschaft Family. Sincere thanks go to event attendees, the event committee members, volunteers at the event, as well as individuals and businesses donating raffle and auction items.
