Expecting 40 vets so we will need about 8-10 more mentors, thanks guys.

Bob, sign me up. I've got a table, ez up, kayak and some fishing gear if needed. Just let me know.

Bob I'll know more on Friday. I'm really trying to make this one to help out.

I'll be coming down to help out sign me up!

Len, Steve you are both signed up, and we can use tables and pop up. Might need a yakak or too also. Josh, I have you on standby, just let me know. Thanks guys, this is going to be great.

i will bring a pop up (should be good for couple more outings) and my kayak.

After 9 1/2 month of being out of work on disability, I restart work on Wednesday and my schedule is not going to let me help out on the HOW event on the 8th. I hope that next event fits into my work schedule so I can go and help out. It is always great to help the HOW cause.

No worries Mark. We'll get you to the next one. :cheers1:

MakoRoberto,

I'd be honored if a vet used my PA-14 on the 8th. But if they try to extract my super secret "big halibut only" way points out my Lowrance, there will be trouble...but I digress...I'm in :luxhello:

I'll have to give it a good cleaning to rid it of that stanky :lobster:smell...:sifone:



Let's hope Jorge can bring some :pepsi:, 7-Up and RC Cola.

Jim :paddleersmilie:

Ill be there on the 8th to help out with what ever is needed.

Thank you all, gentlemen this will be a great event, Jim we can use the 14, as it looks like we might have a blind vet attending. I will let you know in a few days.

Bob,
As per our discussion tonight I'm bummed that I couldn't make it on 10/4 but I'm definitely in for 11/8!

My wife and I will be heading down there to help out.

In in too

John, I have you and your wife, along with Mr Patrick on the list of mentors and volunteers for 8 November. Thank you all.

Weather forcast for 8 November. Temp 78 degrees, winds 1-6mph, should be an AWESOME day, still looking for more Veterans, wives and kids. If you know any have them contact me. r.moore760@gmail.com or 760-692-7276.

HOBIE PA 17T
 

I had a last minute Charter cancelation, & I will be on scene saturday to help out however you see fit..

Oh yea... also will have the NEW Hobie PA 17T for one lucky Veteran to fish in fine style!!!!!:cool::reel:

Wade, I need some product to throw on Saturday! Any way you could pack up a sample of the bay bass/butt products you're behind. I'd be happy to pay ZMan or donate to any cause of your choice. Used stuff is okay, the more scratches on it, the better...just means it's proven :sifone:. Thanks. Jim :paddleersmilie:

WELCOME aboard Wade, see you and the PA 17 T there, our other mentors should start arriving around 6am. We have over 30 Veterans/family members attending, weather looks great too.

4 Nov update
 

We have 33 Veterans, 2 wives, and 5 children signed up for this event on the 8th of November at Tidelands. HOW and BWE members is at 20 so there will be over 60 people at this event, including 2-3 VIPS from the San Diego VA. This is going to be an AWESOME event for the Veterans and our community.

This also means our future events should average 25-30 Veterans and we are going to need more of YOUR support to continue helping our VETERANS and their families. I thank each and every one of you for your continued support. We are still looking for people to join our management TEAM!!! Happy Holidays to all.

What time set up and what is the actual start time of event?

Matt and I will arrive about 5am. to start set up mentors should arrive around 6am, Veterans will be in at 8am.. If you have a chance just swing by and say hello.

I'll be there with my Dad to help out however needed!

Ready to roll! :D

I have an Malibu pro explorer in the garage do we need it as a ride option for a VET? It is old and slow but stable

At this point, if you have an extra yak you can bring. It and you will be welcome. Rather have one or two yaks to many than not enough. Expecting more vets than ever before. Thanks.

Will do...it will be available...see ya at 6
