The TU Veterans Service Partnership (VSP) and Higher Ground Sun Valley (HGSV) are pleased to announce our first VETERANS SERVICES PARTNERSHIP TRAIN THE TRAINER EVENT to be held in Sun Valley, ID from September 24-28. TU chapter or council volunteer VSP coordinators will receive expert training in how to work with disabled veterans, understand military culture, teach adaptive fly fishing techniques, and build and sustain a successful veterans program for your chapter or council. This unique event provides excellent training and hands-on instruction on how to use the training you receive locally. It will be run in conjunction with the Higher Ground Sun Valley military recreational therapy fly fishing program for disabled veterans – one of, if not the top of, its kind in the country. This opportunity is funded by a grant from the VA Adaptive Sports program. All expenses are covered for the Sun Valley event, and travel stipends are available. Space is limited. For more information, please contact TU VSP Coordinator, Dave Kumlien at DKumlien@tu.org or 406-570-0023.
