One Hero At A Time
Boating for Heroes helps our Nation’s warriors and veterans from all branches of the United States military and their families, unwind using the therapeutic qualities of fishing, pleasure boating and working together on a boat. It allows the participants a chance to decompress from the stresses associated with combat and the physical rigors of rehabilitation.
