Healing Waters for Warriors

The Healing Waters for Warriors – Cast & Catch program is a transformative initiative designed to restore, reconnect, and revitalize veterans and first responders through the therapeutic power of nature. Rooted in the belief that healing begins where community and purpose meet, Cast & Catch offers immersive outdoor experiences centered around fly fishing, fellowship, and personal renewal.
Held in serene natural settings across West Virginia and beyond, each retreat is carefully curated to provide participants with more than just recreation—it’s a journey of healing. Veterans and first responders are invited to step away from the burdens of daily life and into a space where camaraderie, reflection, and skill-building flourish. From casting lines in tranquil waters to sharing stories around the fire, every moment is designed to foster connection, confidence, and clarity.
The program is fully funded for participants, ensuring that cost is never a barrier to healing. Through strategic partnerships, donor support, and community engagement, Healing Waters for Warriors sustains this mission with integrity and inclusivity. Each retreat includes professional instruction in fly fishing, guided excursions, wellness activities, and opportunities for peer mentorship—creating a ripple effect of empowerment that extends far beyond the water’s edge.
Cast & Catch is more than a program—it’s a lifeline. It honors service, nurtures resilience, and builds lasting bonds among those who’ve given so much. With every cast, participants reclaim a sense of peace, purpose, and belonging.
