The FEW has been extremely busy and blessed this year. We held over 40 adventures hosting over 300 Exceptional Warriors. Many individuals, sponsors, and associates donated their time, talents and treasure to make these events a success. The FEW are extremely grateful for their enduring support and generosity.
We were able to hosts events throughout 17 states, from Florida to Montana and even to Cabo San Lucas for Marlin Fishing. What was your favorite event?
