The Wounded
Warrior Program... 
Leaps of Faith Disabled Waterskiers is proud to announce our third
Wounded Warrior program. In the past, LOF has been involved in and supplied
equipment along with instructor's for many of the Disabled Sports USA (DSUSA) chapters and other
organization's putting on Wounded Warrior events. This has been ongoing
since 2005. These events are primarily for Iraq and Afghanistan war veterans, men and women alike who are coming home with life changing
injuries. We are not limited to but also support all veterans with our
programs. Not only do we serve our soldiers but their families are also
included in our weekend events. The goal of these events for our soldiers is
to have fun, socialization and to learn the skill of water-skiing and
kayaking (along with instructor's from NEHSA); with the motto "I can do this,
I can do anything."
For the ladies....
This past September the club hosted the first ever "Ladies only" event for our wounded female veterans. We had 14 women from all over the country attend. Our event included healing sessions, a trip to Group Zero in NYC, water skiing, tubing, kayaking, wake boarding, and golf. There was challenging weather but overall it was a huge success!
