American Sportsmen for Veterans

Bob Bowden on June 18, 2023

The history of America Sportsmen for Veterans started 23 years ago when our founder and current president Glen Venner began taking veterans, active-duty military, first responders and their families on hunting and fishing trips. Glen, who grew up in a military family, his father a World War II Gunner in the United States Navy, recognized the overwhelming need for all veterans, active-duty military, and first responders to hear Thank You for Serving Our Country. By offering free recreational events, not only can we thank the brave men and women who serve, but we can provide them with a way to connect with each other. In 2015 Glen formed American Sportsmen For Veterans and in April 2017 America Sportsmen for Veterans became a 501c3 Charitable Nonprofit Organization that functions purely off donations and fundraising. In 2018 America Sportsmen for Veterans provided all components of hunting, fishing and golfing, including guides, licensing and equipment at no cost to 242 heroes. All veterans, active-duty military, first responders and their families are welcomed with open arms. Those suffering from physical and emotional disabilities are encouraged to join.

Over the Edge Outdoors

Bob Bowden on June 17, 2023

Over the Edge Outdoors is a non-profit organization dedicated to serving our brothers and sisters, who have given years of their life in service to our great country.

Over the Edge Outdoors is dedicated to providing Veterans and Active Duty Service Members with connections to like-minded individuals. Using the healing power of nature and the great outdoors, we forge genuine and meaningful friendships between soldiers and vets.

Once you leave the service, it can be hard at times to maintain those sacred bonds we formed while serving our country. We move back home, our buddies get transferred, or just the fact that we’re out of the service can distance us from people we once trusted our lives to.

Our vision with O.T.E.O. is to help service members and vets to reform those close connections, and to maintain that kinship that we crave. Out in a deer blind, out on the lake slinging arrows, or just hanging around the campfire after a hunt, nature brings healing that we all need.
