Enduring Gratitude

We want every soldier, sailor, and airman to feel appreciated for their sacrifice to this grateful nation.

Our  mission is to demonstrate our gratitude to our service men and women by  offering meaningful outdoor experiences, free to the participants.

We  organize a pheasant hunting and sporting clays event every year in the heartland of North Carolina.

We hope you will join us in our efforts to bring a bit of joy to the lives of those who put it all on the line!

Comanche Outdoors

Comanche Outdoors is organized for, and dedicated to, serving the  emotional and physical rehabilitation needs of the active duty military, military veteran, and first responder communities. By raising funds for recreational therapy, we facilitate a variety of outdoor activities that connect participants with nature, build comradery, sharpen cognition, and reduce stress, depression, and anxiety.

American Warrior Outdoors

Organizing outdoor events for Veterans can provide them with opportunities for camaraderie,
support and engagement with nature. Outdoor activities have been shown to have numerous
physical, mental and emotional benefits, making them especially valuable for Veterans who
may be dealing with the challenges of transitioning to civilian life or coping with service-related
issues.
By creating a space where veterans can come together and participate in various outdoor
activities, we’re not only fostering a sense of community but also promoting overall well-being.
Whether it’s organizing hikes, camping trips, fishing outings, hunting opportunities, team sports,
or other outdoor adventures, these events can provide Veterans with a sense of purpose,
connection, and a chance to build lasting friendships with fellow Veterans who understand their
experiences.

Neosho Fish Hatchery Annual Rainbow for Veterans Fishing tournament

Who We Are

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Fisheries Program has played a vital role in conserving America’s fisheries since 1871, partnering with states, tribes, federal agencies, other Service programs, and private interests in efforts to conserve fish and other aquatic resources. The Fisheries Program provides a broad network of on-the-ground expertise that is unique in its geographic coverage, its array of scientific capabilities, and its ability to work strategically across political and jurisdictional boundaries.

The Neosho National Fish Hatchery is the oldest operating federal fish hatchery in the United States. Established in 1888, the hatchery is located in the Ozark Mountain Region of southwest Missouri. It is one of 70 hatcheries operated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service with a mission to conserve and protect our nation’s fishery resources.

How We Help

Over the years more than 130 different species of fish have been raised at the Neosho National Fish Hatchery. Today the hatchery rears primarily rainbow trout and pallid sturgeon. Sound science is used to efficiently produce quality rainbow trout for fishing in modified habitats contributing to healthy economies. The hatchery also enhances recreational fishing opportunities through the stocking of rainbow trout into Lake Taneycomo, providing an enormous boost to the economy. The high quality and efficient rainbow trout production at Neosho NFH is just one aspect of our fish production that creates a positive ripple effect for all Americans. Over 15,000 pallid sturgeons are reared onsite annually for release into the Missouri River as a continuous effort to offset the endangered status of this species.
