Almost five months have passed since Warrior’s Weekend XII was held in POC. We believe it to be the most successful in our history and we continue on planning for WW XIII. Actually, we began almost immediately after WW XII and haven’t let up. We have either held or been a part of several fund raisers since then, including two this past weekend. There is no let-up in sight. This is the kind of effort our volunteers put in to make this event run as it does. When you honor as many wounded heroes as we do, the cost is tremendous but well worth it.

Just last week we held the Patriots Cup in POC and it went very well. Heroes were able to tell their story to the teams fishing and they were, once again, privy to why we do what we do. One hero wanted to get up and tell the crowd that another hero there had saved his life when shot by a sniper. He has had over 100 surgeries to bring him where he is today.

If you’d like to be a part of that event or whatever else we do, please let us know. There will be a volunteer meeting on Sunday, November 11th, at 6:30 p.m. at Cathy’s. We’ll probably have dinner on our own there around 5:30 if you’d like to join us. If you have any questions or are a new volunteer, this would be a good time to get on board and/or get your questions answered.

Thanks to Bill Tigrett and all of the good folks in POC for your support and we look forward to seeing you on the 11th, Veterans Day in POC.

Ron Kocian, President Warrior’s Weekend
