Getting The Ball Rolling

Tidewater Chapter


Many of you have suggested that we start a blog in order to further spread the word about Heroes on the Water and the the Tidewater Chapter.  Our first inclination was that there just aren't enough hours in a day to maintain a blog and tend to the many facets of our lives; family and friends, work, household chores, the many different aspects of maintaining the chapter, and of course a little bit of life's fun mixed in too.  After a bit of deliberation and realizing that we may be able to use the many resources out there (YOU FOLKS), we are decided to draw together not only our perspective on the Tidewater Chapter, but also the viewpoints of our readers.

You folks are not only avid fishermen and women, but also experienced kayakers, current and former members of the military, HOW volunteers, and you maintain sites of your own where you share your thoughts. So with that in mind, we are launching this blog, with the intent to not only try and spread the word of Heroes on the Water ourselves, but also to allow you to do the same through your words and pictures and your unique perspectives.  From time to time we will be asking some of you to submit your creative works to us for posting here to further highlight the work of Heroes on the Water, and the journey of those we serve.

Keep in mind this is an experiment, but one that we are looking forward to.
There's a lot of work to do.  Let's get the ball rolling!
