Howdy Again 👋🏻

🏌️‍♂️ Coming Up!!! Our first Inaugural Golf Tournament for the Appalachian Warrior Tribe Charity is on Sunday, June 14th, 2026 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸. Don’t mind the Flyer, I messed up the date (It Ain’t Saturday, it’s Sunday!) - Thankfully our Tournament Organizer has put cover labels on the actual Flyers to correct it for us. We ain’t perfect, but we do try. Thank You Jordan Earley!!!!

👋🏻 We appreciate our community businesses, golfing competitors, local volunteers and the our amazing group of Disabled Veterans who organize these events to make it a success. We couldn’t do it without you. Much Gratitude!!!

💪🏻 Disabled Veterans Sponsorship Opportunities!!! Many folks just want to purchase Free Entries our Local Disabled Veterans, and we ❤️ it!!! These Disabled Veteran competitors are sponsored by you and/or your company and that makes all the difference. Many of them are often unable enjoy a “free round” of golf at this beautiful course, or haven’t even played golf before. Your support could lead to a new passion for a Disabled Veteran. We strive to ensure our Warriors can learn, enjoy, and get out to the great outdoors to play some greens!

✍️ We’ve already got registrations rolling in - 16/60 spots have been spoken for. Much Thanks from our Disabled Veterans for your personal and/or corporate support!!!

👉🏻 Here’s some exciting updates for the Golf Tournament:

🏌️‍♂️ Smooth Operations!!! Please register for the tournament at least 2 weeks in advance to the tournament date (June 14th, 2026) AND you’ll receive a free raffle ticket for each competitor registration. Register via the online registration link because you’ll be provided an automatically generated Tax Receipt (Charitable
Donation) for a Write-Off. Folks have asked us to save some spots for them without the portal, and that’s alright - just let us know how you want to get your info. Give us a ‘Holler by Phone, Email, Postal Mail, or Social Media Message on the bottom of this post. Easy Day!!!

🎣 Local Business!!! Sequoyah National Golf Course has been a tremendous help in getting the word out to our local golfing community. If you’re in the area, stop by and Thank their incredible staff for supporting Disabled Veterans and pick up some golfing gear from a locally-owned business (Web Link: https://www.sequoyahnational.com)

👏🏻 Expert Guidance!!! Our Local Golf Extraordinaire, Mr. Jordan Earley, has organized a significant amount of these things and helps us organize the tournament while ensuring we don’t mess anything up. Thank You Jordan!!!

📷 Sweet Footage!!! We’ll have our Board Advisors taking action shots out on the course. These photos will be professionally edited and put into a share drive for our tournament golfers, participants, and volunteers. In the future, we will have our local professional Photographer/Videographer (Local Disabled Navy Veteran) and Drone Photographer/Videographer (Disabled Marine Corps Veteran) capturing all of the action from the air, land, AND water in case you “splash down” on that drive. Great Shots!!!

🍲 Awesome Raffle!!! In our recent Fishing Tournament in honor of Armed Forces Day, we had a Brand New Ta**us Pistol - a .44 Caliber Revolver with aftermarket sight & extra pistol grip, “Raging Hunter” Model, donated by a local Disabled Marine Corps Veteran and Yamaha Boat Representative, Mr. Patrick Springer ($1000 Value). Thank You Patrick!!! This time, we’ll have another VERY COOL prize up for a Big Winner - perhaps something similar 😉 To Be Announced!!!

👏🏻 Sweet Setup!!! Our Local Disabled Veteran and Trout Farm Extraordinaire, Mr. Gerry Laschober, Owner of Coopers Creek Trout Farm and AWT Board Member, is bringing extra equipment for the event. Thank You Gerry!!! (Web Link: https://www.cooperscreektroutpond.com).
