As proud Americans, we recognize the selfless service and ultimate sacrifices of our nation's Armed Forces. We particularly render special tribute to the Wounded Warriors and their special needs. To these severely injured defenders of liberty, we promise to commit material resources; we pledge to elevate their plight to a caring community and help reintegrate Wounded Warriors into civilian life.
In 2010, 20 teams raised over $80,000 for the Wounded Warriors Project and various Veteran organizations. We invite you to join us for thos 2011 Tank Pull Competition on June 26, 2011!
One night while watching the evening news, a group of veterans and brothers were moved by the difficult stories of the first wounded service members returning home from Afghanistan and Iraq. They realized then and there that something needed to be done for these brave individuals beyond the brass bands and ticker tape parades. The resulting objective was to provide tangible support for the severely wounded and help them on the road to healing, both physically and mentally. What had been initially viewed as a small contribution (compared with what the warriors had sacrificed while serving our country) has become WWP's signature program:"WWP backpacks delivered bedside to wounded warriors."
Knights are Catholic men, 18 years of age and older, who are committed to making their community a better place, while supporting their Church. Being a Knight is more than camaraderie; it is being involved with your community; it is supporting your local Catholic Church, while enhancing your own faith; it is about protecting and enhancing your family life.
