HOW FEB 28th - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

YakMedic · 02-19-2015, 02:25 PM

I understand the frustration Chops, Luckily we don't only rely on one source for our veteran participants. I have been working with the San Diego VA and local veterans groups and have been signing people up daily.

These things grow organically, and the last 2-3 days are when everyone finally decides they want to go. Our goal is still to have 40 Vet participants for the 2/28 event.

Quite frankly I think we may exceed 40. We will just keep plugging away and if the wounded warrior battalion doesn't make this event we will try and get them to come out for the next one.

Blasted it at the VA in PL. Going to Balboa Med Center's VA/MWR tomorrow to do the same.

Sent you a PM.

And for everyones information!!!

HOW goes through 20-30lbs of fish per event and we host 9 events per year. Thanks to gracious donations from people on this board such as Tony "Ful-Rac" and others like Tommy Gomes at Catalina Offshore Products we have been lucky enough not to have to buy fish.

However the freezer for HOW is running very low. We have enough fish for our event 2/28 but after that we are completely empty. Without continued support and donations from the community we will be serving HOTDOGS!!!

Please Help in anyway you can. Even 5# makes a difference.
