This page is dedicated to all the latest information for the Annual Heroes Offshore Adventure.
6 years ago, Wesley Young and myself joked about working together to host an offshore fishing trip for Veterans and First Responders. Wesley is the founder of Band Of Heroes Outdoors in Pennsylvania. I told him if he could come up with the funds, I would plan it.
We started the first year with 1 boat and 12 Heroes. Year 2 saw three boats and 20 Heroes. The 3rd year we had 5 boats and 30 Heroes. Our 4th year, we had 7 boats and 42 Heroes. The 5th year saw 9 boats and 54 Heroes.
As we approach the 6th year, we are set to host 11 boats and 65 Heroes. Our goal, is to host atleadt 100 Heroes Offshores by the end of 2026.
