The canal provides irrigation water to approximately 107,000 acres in Wyoming and Nebraska, and 100% of the funds raised from the event support area producers affected by the breach and tunnel collapse that occurred July 17.

In doing the event, LeDoux mentioned that since he himself came from a ranching background, he would always support events that supported family ranchers and farmers.
