We are a 100% volunteer-based 501(c)3 non-profit organization. Our team organizes and promotes dozens of events annually, where we gather groups of active duty and veteran soldiers, sailors, marines, and airmen for hunting and fishing trips at locales provided by our sponsors.
We seek to offer places and spaces for healing, laughter, awe, and reflection. We seek relationships, not recognition, and friendships, not platitudes.
