Beyond our commitment in being the world leader in rubber track technology and providing our customers with the most innovative products, Mattracks matches that commitment in giving back to the community.
The organization was founded by Ardell Larson in 2007. Each year they continue to bring children with life threatening illnesses (along with their parents and one sibling) who are country music fans to the Kick'n Up Kountry Music Festival. The Board selects names of children from Sanford Hospital, Fargo, ND and Altru Hospital, Grand Forks, ND. Participating families have a pleasurable limo ride to the event and have a memorable time meeting all of the artists, as well as enjoying a day of entertainment and festivities. Hopes, Dreams & Smiles enables the families to enjoy the entire trip free of charge.
Mattracks is a proud major sponsor of the Kick'n Up Kountry Music Festival.
Located just one mile west of the city of Karlstad, Wagon Wheel Ridge Event Center is the premier venue in northern Minnesota. It is known for being the home of the Kick'n Up Kountry Music Festival for four days in June, but the remaining three hundred sixty-one days of the year the venue hosts varying events from weddings, reunions, birthdays, graduations, company parties, races and many more.
