Klickitat Salutes is dedicated to supporting local veterans and provides a guided hunting excursion designed to give nominated veterans a chance to connect, unwind, and enjoy the great outdoors, said a Mt. Adams Elks Lodge press release.
The night before the hunt, the team served a hearty dinner to the selected veterans.
“Seeing the camaraderie among the group and hearing their experiences was a powerful reminder of why we do this work,” said a press release. “We truly enjoyed every moment of serving them and sending them off with full stomachs and warm wishes for their adventure.”
