The Heroes of The 8th Annual Camp Hackett Black Bear Hunt all arrived safely and didn’t waste any time getting in the woods and getting it done! They finished Day One with two bears harvested and one tag left to fill. We visited with some of the amazing supporters of the event and will get back at it on Day 2 after a good night’s rest. Stay tuned!

🎣 THE COUNTDOWN IS ON FOR LAKE ERIE! 🇺🇸💜
The Inaugural WWIA Lake Erie Walleye Warriors Fishing event is coming to Vermilion, Ohio, September 18–21, 2026! 🎣🌊
Our Purple Heart Heroes will soon take to the legendary waters of Lake Erie for an unforgettable few days of world-class walleye fishing, camaraderie, connection, and the restorative power of the great outdoors.
As with every WWIA event, this is about so much more than fishing. 💜 These therapeutic, adaptive, outdoor sporting adventures provide our Heroes with opportunities to reconnect with fellow Purple Heart recipients, be supported by patriotic communities, strengthen bonds, build lasting friendships, and experience some much-deserved time together.
👏 A very special thank you to our incredible Hosts, Jim and Crisie Clifford, and their remarkable group of supporters! Their generosity, hard work, hospitality, and commitment to our Heroes have helped make this inaugural event possible. We are tremendously grateful for everyone who has stepped forward to support this event and ensure our Heroes receive an experience they will remember for years to come. 🇺🇸💜
🎣 Big water. Big walleye. Strong connections. An even greater purpose.
We can't wait to see what Lake Erie has in store! Go get em'! 🐟

The 8th Annual Camp Hackett Black Bear Event has begun with a bang! Heroes from Florida, South Carolina, Kentucky and Missouri began arriving last night and didn’t waste any time getting on the board.
Wisconsin residents wait at least a decade to get their hands on a bear tag and many graciously donate/transfer these tags to our Purple Heart Heroes to give them an opportunity to harvest a Northwoods black bear at Camp Hackett. We are extremely grateful for these opportunities and the people that make this event possible. Wish our heroes luck!

💜 “A game changer, life changer, and a new chapter in my life.” 🇺🇸
Those words from Purple Heart Hero Kevin M. speak volumes about the impact of a WWIA experience.
For our Heroes, these events are about so much more than hunting, fishing, or spending time in the great outdoors. They are opportunities to come together with fellow Purple Heart recipients who understand the journey—to reconnect, rediscover purpose, strengthen bonds, and experience moments of genuine healing and restoration.
Kevin described his WWIA experience as “one of the best feelings in my life besides getting married, the birth of my daughter, and coming home from Iraq.”
That is an incredibly powerful statement—and a meaningful reminder of why our mission matters.
Through world-class therapeutic, adaptive, outdoor sporting adventures, WWIA creates an environment where our Heroes can build lasting relationships, experience the restorative power of the outdoors, and begin new chapters in their lives.
To Kevin and all of the remarkable Purple Heart Heroes we have the privilege of serving: thank you for your service, your sacrifice, and for trusting us to be part of your journey. 💜🇺🇸
Honor. Connect. Heal.
