Ricky Padgett, John Dangerfield, and myself got involved with ODF, Outdoor Dream Foundation this past spring. This foundation takes children that have been affected by life threatening illnesses and puts them on hunting adventures. Some of the kids have beat the odds and some are fighting.
Two of the kids from our group are currently battling cancer again. One of them is to lose his hearing by next month, and is wheel chair bound. The other is currently fighting his third round of cancer. He has had two brain surgeries and is on chemo. He is 9 years old. Both of these kids LOVE turkey hunting and shot gobblers this spring.
Im going to ride up and spend some time with these fellows. I plan to take them a copy of the Tenth Legion, graciously donated by our own Nitro ( thanks for what you do brother), and welcome them to our turkey hunting fraternity.
What id like to ask of You guys, is if you would like to email a little note to these kids to slip in with the book. Something like " welcome to the fraternity, see in the spring woods". Something inspirational for them. I think it would mean a lot to these kids.
