The MV Surfcasters have played a role in supporting the MV Derby American Heroes event in the past, and were out in force on Sept 20'th to support the visiting wounded warriors and their families during the 2011 East Beach outing. MV Surfcasters provided logistical support moving the visitors from the Beach Plum Inn out to East Beach. Surfcasters then worked one on one with the vets and their families casting for blues and dunking bait on East Beach throughout the afternoon and early evening of the 20’th. As much as this is a fishing outing, it's really more about spending time with the vets, making them feel welcome, and providing them with an opportunity to relax and enjoy some of the wonderful places we get to fish on MV.
Surfcasters who helped out included Wally White, Bob Lane, Mike Stimola, Janet Messineo, and Phil Horton. Surfcasters Peter Johnson, Paul Schultz, Will and Sue Geresy, and Dan Geary were part of the TTOR team that supported the outing. The vets and their families had a great time.
