Honoring Our Veterans

Fly-fishing, white-water rafting, paddling sports/therapy, horseback riding, wildlife tours, Yellowstone and Grand Teton Park tours, scenic rafting on the Snake River, Barbecue dinners and campfire chats with staff, rehabilitation professionals, and local residents. The veterans have found that these activities and the associated socialinteraction have helped them re-integrate into society more easily.

 

Honoring America’s Warriors

Honoring America’s Warriors outdoor programs offers one of the coolest opportunities to get veterans engaged. All of the outings will be on private leases that have been donated to the organization. If you would like to participate in Dove, Quail, Turkey, Hog, Water Fowl, Deer, and Fishing to include noodling, follow the link below to sign up. There will be opportunities throughout the year. We are veterans that believe in the therapy and self-sufficiency involved in the outdoors. Whether it be hunting, fishing, camping or just wandering around outside for stress relief.

Higher Ground

We use recreation, therapy, and continuing support to give people of all abilities a better life. Together we bridge the gap between disability and belonging.

There is no other program in the country that offers the whole-life healing that we do at Higher Ground. We are the only program that invites the spouse or other supporter to be part of the journey. Together, the pair forms a new unit with other veterans and supporters in their program.

They take on new challenges. They talk. They listen. They feel heard. They feel hope.

The real healing begins when they head home. Higher Ground guarantees the veteran can stay active in recreation by providing the equipment and finances needed. We also commit to three years of follow-up support. We check in, we encourage, and we help them remember that they are not in this alone.

Heroes Ranch

Heroes Ranch is a recreational retreat providing “Outdoor Accessible” Family Adventures and Fellowship for injured, ailing, wounded or disabled Heroes. We proudly welcome Heroes and their families from the Military, Law Enforcement, Firefighters, First Responders, Gold Star Families and Special Needs Families.

Located 90 minutes East of Dallas, Texas, Heroes Ranch sits on endless acres of pristine hunting and adventure grounds. This scenic piece of land has a long history of once being a tree farm and a Boy Scout campground. Now it is a fertile landscape of towering trees, bountiful wildlife with several scenic lakes – perfect for hunting, fishing, camping, nature walks and endless outdoor activities for all ages!

Heroes on the Water

Our United States military veterans and personnel make the ultimate sacrifice for us daily. Heroes on the Water understands that this role can come with stress and trauma and we are dedicated to supporting the overall physical and mental healing process. Our goal is to build a community where our veterans and active-duty participants feel comfortable and valued.

Our chapter events are designed to create a welcoming and pressure-free environment and are proven to help reduce symptoms of post-traumatic stress and traumatic brain injury. They provide a chance for participants to reconnect with themselves and others.

Events are open to family members of veterans and first responders at no cost because we believe that the focus should be on the whole person, which includes family as well.

Heroes New Hope Foundation

Heroes New Hope Foundation, Inc. is a 501©(3) organization formed in May of 2016 by Scott Goodman after a successful joint venture with Blind Endeavors – another 501©(3) that serves combat-wounded veterans – that came in the form of a turkey hunt for blinded veterans from across the United States.

After seeing firsthand, the needs of our veterans and their families who have sacrificed so much of themselves for our freedom, it is now time for us to give back to them.

Heroes New Hope Foundation provides all-inclusive ecotherapy opportunities included but not limited to an annual spring turkey hunt, summer fishing trip, fall deer hunt and other outdoor activities.

Heroes Hunt for Veterans

Heroes’ Hunt for Veterans would like to thank all of our wonderful Veterans who put their life on the line to protect our freedom! We love you and can never say THANK YOU enough!

Each Saturday we’ll meet our hunters at the AmericInn Hotel & Suites in Waupun, get settled in, then its off to the shooting range for some target practice and getting to know each other. When the time is right we will head out to one of our many blinds to include three Redneck blinds, two constructed 8×8 blinds, six pop up blinds, or one of 35 ladder stands. Each hunter will be accompanied by a guide whose job it is to make this about the hunter and his/her experience. Guides will be filming the hunt so the memory can be shared with others.

Hero Hunts

Hero Hunts is dedicated to placing servicemen/women in the great outdoors. We strive to reconnect veterans with the outdoors through hunting, fishing, and other outdoor activities. We are about teaching proper ethics and following state guidelines, rules, and regulations in the outdoors. Hero Hunts helps to show veterans the wealth of resources that the outdoors has to offer.
