We had a great group of people who are going to smack a little white ball on a grass carpet, or at least it looks like a carpet. The ball always seems to win. Everyone was at the Meridian Golf Club in Englewood for a good time and to support our Humanitarian Outreach Program, which was started almost 20 years ago. We host outings such as fishing, hunting, archery, photography and much more for wounded Vets and individuals with disabilities. 10 wounded Vets from Ft. Carson WTB and Operation TBI Freedom played in our group. The course is beautiful and the weather was perfect. Mike Shur, owner of Meridian Golf Club, is a big supporter and does a great job of making sure everything is perfect for our event, including a fantastic lunch on the patio. It was a wonderful day and a big thanks to all who came out to support our mission.

This past Saturday was a wonderful day of fly fishing instruction, fly fishing, and lunch on the deck overlooking the water. Instruction came first, casting, gear and knots. The guides and volunteers all pitched in to help with the instruction. We suited up, got our gear and paired up with the guides. We fished the river and the ponds. The water was low and clear and the trout plentiful. You can see the smiles and hear the screams of excitement in everyone's voices every time a trout is on the line, and there were some big ones being landed. More importantly, we were there for a day of peace and healing, a day outdoors in the mountains. At lunchtime and we had a special treat prepared by the Escoffier Culinary Academy. We gathered on the deck to eat, tell stories and meet new friends. It was a great day and a big thanks to all guides, staff and volunteers.

It's Saturday morning, the sun's out and we have a great group of 60 participants to kick off our first sporting clay fundraiser. SCIHop, Operation TBI Freedom, Craig Hospital, Ft. Carson WTB, Task Force ISO, and Victory Service Dogs are all here as they are the primary groups supported by River Deep. We are all here to support our mission to help wounded Vets and individuals with disabilities with year round outings and programs. We start with a light breakfast and the safety talk. We have twelve squads consisting of 4 or 5 shooters per team. We head down to the course as we have both beginners and experts. Even though we all keep score, it's not that important as we are here to have a good time and support a great cause. By 12PM we are all done with the course and head back to the lodge for an amazing lunch prepared by Kiowa Creek Sporting Club. There were discussions on who had the best scores, and we hear from our Vets who have been impacted by our programs. It's been a wonderful day and a big thanks to the Kiowa Creek Sporting Club, and to all the volunteers and participants.
