A beer and wine tasting fundraiser benefitted the Maddie Potts Foundation on Saturday night.

The Valley Country Club was packed with people showing support.

The family of 17-year-old Maddie Potts created the foundation to carry on her legacy after she died of a brain aneurism on the soccer field at Chariho Regional High School in 2017.

The foundation raises money for the Chariho community.

Maddie played both soccer and lacrosse.

The Maddie Potts Field House opened last summer in her memory.
