Heroes on the Water
JOIN US FOR A TWO WEEK LONG TOURNAMENT HONORING OUR FOUNDER, JIM DOLAN. Seven (7) tournaments, both salt water and freshwater. Tournaments begin September 16, 2023 and run through October 1, 2023. SIGN UP FOR YOUR REGION TODAY.
Heroes on the Water, a 501(c)(3) veterans charity, creates alternative wellness programs to serve veterans, active-duty military personnel, first responders and their families.
The primary proven therapy utilized by Heroes on the Water is kayak fishing. Volunteer-led chapters around the United States hold events which are free for our nation’s heroes. Recurring activities give these heroes and their families a lifelong social network with like-minded people.
Founded in 2007, Heroes on the Water is dedicated to providing veterans services through recurring therapy and growing our volunteer chapter base. In 2018, we officially opened our services to first responders and their families. Our programs are proven to be effective and provide heroes with a way to positively improve their lives, enhance their family dynamic, and impact their community.
Prizes will be awarded for first, second, and third place depending on number of participants.
NOTE: Tournament Rule Update - A maximum of 3hp internal combustion engine or electrical propulsion is permitted on your kayak.
