Merry Christmas and warmest holiday wishes to all of our Take A Vet Fishing friends! That includes our veterans and volunteers, our event partners and supporters of every stripe!

And we do it while wetting a line and taking our chances at reeling in a fish or two. Throw in some good old-fashioned hospitality and a barbecue, and a good time is just about guaranteed!
