Veterans program
Fishing. Healing. Brotherhood.
A place for veterans to connect with nature, build friendships, learn new skills, and rediscover purpose through time on the water.
The mission
The water gives us room to reconnect.
Led by U.S. Navy veteran William Storm, the program uses fishing-based recreation to encourage relaxation, confidence, fellowship, and outdoor wellness. Trips and workshops create room for veterans to learn beside one another, share stories, and reconnect with the camaraderie of service in a calm outdoor setting.
