Excellent. Thanks Dave for getting some dates out there. I am in again this year.

Awesome Dave! Thanks for your efforts and the update.

So they have RV spots? I would probably pick up the toy hauler from Apache lake on the way up there.

[D&P Powell]

They do have RV spots. Don't know much about them though.

[dj2]

Thanks, I will do some research

[lancehon]

Hopefully I can catch a few waves from you guys again, I'm gonna try to make it down there again!

I wanted to throw something out there and see how the group responds....

I've been talking to David Deep, founder of Wake for Warriors, in regards to a West Coast event similar to what they have out East (see links below).

My thought was if it makes sense to piggyback a WFW event on the TO Reunion to help save cost, increase the visibility without having to advertise another event and ensure there was enough participation that the Warriors had a good time at an already awesome event. That being said, I also don't want to take away from the TO Reunion in any way. Tige is a large sponsor, I think the only boat brand WFW works with, so there wouldn't be any other boat brand to worry about. Germaine Marine has already expressed interest in both the TO Reunion as well as a WFW event.

Please either PM, email (johncolman@me.com) or call me to discuss to keep the bulk of the comments off this thread. If there is enough interest, we can always add it to the thread. I also respect if anyone is against it and would rather keep that confidential without starting an argument. End of the day, this is the TO Reunion first and I am only suggesting this as a possible kick start to some future WFW events.

Thanks!

Were in, looking forward to a great weekend

[Thegerman618]

I will get you a PM on this I looked into this Org and wanted to be apart of it but saw they were east coast wasn't sure about the logistics of it.

[Ewok]

Wake for Warriors sounds like a promising organization. I'll send them an email too and find out if they piggy back with any other VA groups to get Vets on the water. I know there are a lot of vets on TO and I'd love to help someway. My new job will probably let me travel back down to Vegas for the 2016 TO Reunion!

[Bad05]

Good feedback guys! I keep in touch with Dave and logistically we would have a little planning to do, but I also work with Nevada Military Support Alliance and plan on talking with them if as a group we decide to piggy back the events. Again, I am looking for constructive comments for or against the idea and DO NOT want this to take away from the original TO Reunion. I would rather plan a second event if there are concerns so keep the comments coming!
