Fresh air and world class fishing was exactly what the American Heroes Project had in order last month when they hosted a retreat in Manila for disabled veterans. The organization welcomed 18 women veterans to the Rocky Ridge Outpost camp for a 5-day retreat of camping and fishing on Flaming Gorge Reservoir. The American Heroes Project actually hosts camps each month at Flaming Gorge, each time allowing different groups the chance to come camp and fish. The group has three boats and provided the experience to around 900 disabled veterans in 2016 at Flaming Gorge, Strawberry Reservoir and Southern Utah. The next camp is being held on Flaming Gorge
August 14th through the 17th
and will be hosting “Gold Star” families of fallen service members. American Heroes Project welcomes anyone that sees them on the water to pass as wake-less as possible and say hello! For more information on the organization, visit
