Curt Mueller, the chief executive officer of Mueller Sports Medicine in Prairie du Sac and a former University of Wisconsin men’s basketball player, has pledged a $1 million gift to his alma mater.
The gift comes jointly from the Mueller family, including Brett Mueller, the company’s president; Ginger Mueller-Mann, a vice president; and Jeff Mueller, a regional salesman.
Mueller has designated $700,000 to the athletic department, of which $500,000 was designated for the Camp Randall Stadium renovation project. Another $125,000 will go to the Heritage Hall project, a multi-purpose area that will be used for team banquets, alumni receptions and recruiting visits.
