Disabled Veterans & Wounded Warriors outreach hunts and outings
This project is near and dear to our hearts. In 2009 we started the first DAV hunt on TMWRA. The deer population needs to be controlled and we could not turn the general public loose with rifles on the property for safety reasons, so we tried a few different approaches before doing a total DAV deer hunt. This has been a huge success story for PRP’s. The hunters are at least sixty percent combat disabled veterans or Wounded Warriors and are screened and selected by local Chapter 41 DAV Commander. We try to give them a very positive and relaxing few days to get away from whatever burdens them may have. The hunters are housed locally, feed good meals, and each provided with a guide for their outing.
