I won't be on much since I'm a UPS driver. So bear with me if you don't get a response right away to questions. I do get emails directly sent to my phone. So if you want to get in touch with me concerning PHWFF please go to my profile and send an email to me (not a private message). Thanks and Happy Holidays.
Let me wipe the tear from my eye. Thank you so much for doing this project. I don't know who started it or who is involved with it but...THANK YOU. I just got back into posting and found this board. Some of you may know, I'm a flight medic in the MN National Guard and am currently stationed in Helmand Provence, Afgfhanistan. I wish I was still living in the NW because I've got a boat and would be willing to volunteer as much as needed. This is a great thing you guys are doing for our service members. It does my heart good to see these types of programs offered to those that have given more than they have had to. Bless you all, and if there is anything I could do to help form MN when I get back, please let me know. Again, thank you Damian "Not till I have your wounded"
Here you go. Thankfully, it's still early in the season, so am able to come and go a bit. Here's a list of programs in that area. I just cut/pasted all of it in case there's one closer to you.
