Greetings,
There will be a 24 hour 50KM Freedom Swim with 5 active duty, 2 retired, and 1 military spouse at Founders Park in Islamorada, FL on 10 NOV through 11 NOV to raise money which will support our Gold Star Teen Adventures foundation.
The website is Gold Star Teen Adventures.
GSTA is a non-profit organization started by Kent Solheim, a special operations service member was very seriously wounded in combat in Iraq in 2007, ultimately losing his right leg. Kent’s experiences on his road to recovery inspired the creation of Gold Star Teen Adventures. Kent, a father of two, realized that if he had not made it home, he would have still wanted his children to know the brotherhood of the special operations community that he had grown to love, and to share in the adventures that his career had permitted him to do. Additionally, Kent realized that he experienced emotional healing when he was able to spend time with others that had endured similar trauma in their lives.
Monies raised will help support activities for the families of those special forces soldiers who were kill in action.
Any help would be appreciate to help us with this event and we are soliciting business sponsorships too.
Thank you for your consideration and support of our Gold Star Teens.
Also if you're in the Florida Keys and would like to volunteer to help during the event, please contact Capt Gary at Conch Republic Divers. We sure could use your help!

Good Diving,
