Mission and programs · 2025
Mission
To create a therapeutic, recreational, and educational retreat for our nation's US armed forces and their families by using outdoor wilderness activities in Maine to create comfortable and relaxing milieu for veterans, active duty military, and their families to come together to share their common challenges which come from the service and sacrifice of protecting our nation's freedom and cherished democratic ideals. Activities will be led by licensed Maine guides and staffed with caring volunteers and assistance from the local VA Center and health professionals from the community upon request. We offer an outdoor retreat program that honors their sacrifice and assists our veterans in the journey towards healing the mental and physical pain of loss.

Guided fishing/hunting trips are provided free with donations/fundraising for veterans and their families

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those.
