Freedom Alliance, an organization that supports the country’s injured service members, is set to host four combat veterans and their wives on a retreat at Lake Lanier Aug 18-21.
For the fourth year in a row, the couples will partake in a variety of therapeutic outdoor activities including fishing, boating and jet skiing.
This all takes place at the home of Freedom Alliance board member Rita Scott and her husband David. In addition, Paradise Rental Boats is donating a houseboat. In July, the Scotts also opened their home to several service members for a similar trip. Captains Mike Maddalena and Ken West of Lake Lanier Fishing Charter and Guide Service,’BIG FISH ON’ donated a fishing expedition to the group.
“We are grateful to provide these deserving veterans and their wives with a peaceful time away,” said Rita Scott. “It’s our hope they will all leave this therapeutic trip with strengthened and restored relationships.”
Freedom Alliance hosts numerous events across the country each year to support wounded veterans and their families.
