Good morning my fishing family!!
We are excited to announce we have a new charity for next year tournament!!
The Greg Olsen Foundation Inc - HEARTest Yard!!
A brief summary of what the foundation is all about.
The HEARTest Yard, established in 2013, is the first and only family support and service program for pediatric cardiovascular patients and their families in the Carolinas. The HEARTest Yard, a program under Receptions for Research: The Greg Olsen Foundation, supports families of children with congenital heart disease with in-home nursing care and comprehensive medical services at The HEARTest Yard Congenital Heart Center.
Our goal: A happier, healthier future for heart kids.
We picked this foundation because Will was born with a Congenital Heart Defect along with a clef lip and pallet. He was 5 weeks pre-mature and had to struggle from the day he was born. He had to have open heart surgery at 11 months old. He went on to have to have 2 more heart surgeries and 10 additional surgeries for the clef lip and pallet. He was fighter and beat all odds. He also was a huge Carolina Panthers Fan!!
We also want to wish our fishing family a Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!! Always remember what important quality family time is and making memories!! Hug your kids tight and tell them you love them!!
