So the event is coming up in less then a week. It is next Saturday, July 23rd and will start at 8 am at the Dana Point Yacht Club. Been messaging with Curt over on Bloodydecks and it sounds like its coming along really smoothly.

They are coordinating with the DPYC and they have reserved parking both in the YC parking lot as well as at the end of the boat owners lot closest to the YC. From what i understand Andy up at OEX sunset is taking care of kayaks for the servicemen/women and there will be a bbq of hamburgers and hotdogs for after the fishing is done. At this point there are 18 confirmed wounded warriors so anyone interested in coming out and playing a guide roll or even just being out there to shoot the shit and wet a line and help welcome them back into society would be great. Also, they are still looking for more rods/reels as well as terminal tackle and lures(mostly probably just plastics for fishing the kelp/pipe)

If anyone is interested in donating their time or the use of some of their equipment please let me know and i will pass the word along to the main organizers over at BD. Feel free to respond via the thread or PM me. Thanks for any and all interest. Its gonna be a very memorable event to be a part of.

Thanks,

Tim
