Eric J Posted June 3, 2018 Posted June 3, 2018 Is This continuing? I did lots of fundraising for Wounded vet charity as an endurance athlete. I would be interested in this project. 1
Super User roadwarrior Posted June 7, 2018 Author Super User Posted June 7, 2018 Yes and we have a couple of rods "in process". Donations are GREATLY appreciated! -Kent a.k.a. roadwarrior Global Moderator
Super User flechero Posted July 10, 2018 Super User Posted July 10, 2018 Wow, this sounds a lot like the original "soldier rods!!" Awesome that the spirit of giving inside BassResource.com continues!! I sure miss the ol' gang! Looks like you all are in fine shape and caring for our next generation of soldiers... a salute to all involved!!!!! 1
Super User NHBull Posted July 27, 2018 Super User Posted July 27, 2018 WOW! I can't tell you how honored and humbled I am to receive this. Little things are big things and the timing couldn't be better given some medical issues that need tending to soon. This community is something special and my hat's off to those that do the heavy lifting and the elders that share their knowledge. Thanks, from a gratefull Marine... 8 1
wimmerwxwarrior Posted October 4, 2018 Posted October 4, 2018 How does a veteran register for this awesome charity? I served 26 years in OUR USAF with 13 combat tours and it just humbles me to see folks like you given your time, money, and heart to this cause. I served all of the American people but it's folks like you all who carry on the core value of service before self. Thank you all. ~Mike 3
Super User roadwarrior Posted October 5, 2018 Author Super User Posted October 5, 2018 Thank you for your service. Recipients are recommended by our membership. Generally we are looking for active participants that have been on the Forum for some time. We do not consider our Warrior Project a charity, but simply recognition of our appreciation for those that have served. It is not a lottery and we do not make these gifts for just joining the site. Activity and longevity are important factors. -Kent a.k.a. roadwarrior Global Moderator 2

Super User roadwarrior Posted December 8, 2018 Author Super User Posted December 8, 2018 It's almost MERRY CHRISTMAS! Just wanted to remind everyone that is interested in our Warrior Project that we are still actively working on awarding custom rods to select members. If there is a member you would like to recommend, please send me a PM. Also, our project is funded by Bass Resource members. All of our volunteers work without compensation so 100% of all donations go into the build. If you would like to contribute please send me a note. Thank you! -Kent a.k.a. roadwarrior Global Moderator 1

OutKast Actual Posted January 4, 2019 Posted January 4, 2019 What you folks are doing for my fellow veterans is awesome... It's been years since I've been on this site and I just seen this thread... it put a big smile on my face to see you folks care so much about our military service! 2
Luke Barnes Posted October 30, 2019 Posted October 30, 2019 Oh wow!! As a US Army combat veteran it makes me so happy to see you all doing this!! Fishing has helped me in so many ways since I got out of the army. So you all being able to help fellow soldiers and vets is amazing!
RLinNH Posted March 25, 2022 Posted March 25, 2022 I'm a Vet. Granted, I'm a ticked off VET that likes NoOne but my secluded 15 acres of land. Granted, I did not read the thread in detail. But I KNOW WHAT Other ticked off Vets are going through. And I also know that it takes A LOT To get them to get help. How can I help this cause?
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 25, 2022 Author Super User Posted March 25, 2022 We have builders that donate their time and expertise (no compensation). The cost for a custom rod is approximately $300.
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 26, 2022 Author Super User Posted March 26, 2022 I have a member that is interested in donating half the cost of a custom build. If you are interested in contributing the other half ($150) send me a PM.
Daniel Abram Posted April 2, 2023 Posted April 2, 2023 I would love to have one. I tried a couple years ago I think. But idk what happened. I can give proof of my disabled Veteran status. But I don’t know where to begin.
Super User roadwarrior Posted April 4, 2023 Author Super User Posted April 4, 2023 ghoti (Gary Kilmartin) was our builder, Moderator and good friend. However, he was the whole deal and he is no longer building. Sorry.
