That's it...

I'm liking this spot again as we are going to have people coming from all over and this offers the best logistics...

Hopefully we do better fishing wise, but again realized, this is first about getting these awesome people on the water... we will have other events soon,( Just heard from Kelsey Bass Ranch!!!  :smt003 ) just want to get this year going and with new volunteers from the paper, this location would work best ....

I'm working on getting fees waived, but no promises...

this will be a smaller, earlier start event as I am contacting the vets personally as to get them there earlier and know more about their special needs. We probably will have Sunrise to help with some yaks, but I would still expect we need to bring yaks. I will also try to get a pontoon boat and expect we will have a few PB on the water for support and those vets who can not deal with a yak...

 More later and Cisco...

I have your thermos and hat...  sorry about your radio

just talked with one of our new volunteers, who is also a kayakfisherman ( never heard of ncka before he heard of HOW.... :scratch:, how can that be?) anyway, he fishes Del Valle alot and he feels the bite should be great in February,  :thumleft: :thumright:

as long as we don't get too much rain...

anyway, hopefully he will log on to the site soon, intro himself and dish out the tips!!! but, if nothing else, he will be at the event....

Don, I would be glad to help. Ideally, i would like to guide but can also cook or whatever you need. What paper do the new volunteers come from?

  After what I can only imagine these soldiers went through to get wounded, I suspect a little rain is nothing for them to handle now.

Dude!!!  You should totally be " On The Water!!!!! "  Lunch is going to be simple....

Hot dogs and what ever else is easy and no clean up...  the volunteers I'm talking about came from us being on the front page of most of the Bay Area News papers.

I'm really hoping that a few of them can take over the food aspect, and if not, again, we will just do something easy...

Really appreciate the Herculean effort you put into the last 2 events,

Outstanding!!!!

 This one, were going to focus on some fish, with a small lunch on the side,

I'm even saying that everyone should bring a snack or whatever it takes to get them through the morning....

What we did in the past was what we had to do. We needed to rely on the VA to bring us Vets and gain their trust and in doing so, we had to go big and be loaded for bear.

we did that and played to their bankers hours for fishing...

 well, now we have contact info for Vets and can have a bit more control of how and when we want to start, and we are doing that.

I do believe we will have a few Larger events this year, but for this one, were just going to try and run it like a " Hook Up..."

Hey Jerry,
    How you been? We'll get you to the water. Don't worry about that.  As we get closer there will be more about what is needed from us. See you there.

Affirmative....

 For now, I'm planning that all participants and volunteers will take care of themselves food wise for the morning, and we will have some sort of lunch afterwards....   but,  if I get some of these other volunteers or other orgs... that want to help, maybe they will do something...

just keep tuned to this thread...    :smt002
