Memorial Day observation and HOW
What will you and your family do this Memorial Day to honor those who have given their all in service to their country?
Are you interested in instilling in our children patriotism and an appreciation for the freedoms we enjoy as Americans? The truth is, there is a disconnect between what Memorial Day means, and how it is observed today. There is a way for Americans to observe Memorial Day by honoring the sacrifices made by members of the military, especially those who have been wounded . . . and it's an opportunity to give back to those who have been engaged in the fight to ensure our freedom today. Individually or as a family, become informed about the increasing numbers and needs of injured military servicemen and women returning home. Together, we can impact their lives for the better and instill hope for the future. Thoughtfully consider making a donating to Heroes on the Water this Memorial Day. Heroes on the Water helps injured military personnel, men and women from all branches of the service, to relax, rehabilitate and reintegrate into society through kayak fishing and the outdoors. Visit http://www.HeroesOnTheWater. Currently there is no SoCal chapter however hopefully that can change soon. Both Jim Sammons and I have been hoping to get something going however, unfortunately neither of us have the spare time needed to head this (but offer full support in whatever ways possible). If you are interested in helping get this chapter going send me a message and lets see if we can get a HOW team going down here. |
