Any and all veterans, retired or currently serving, are welcome to apply. Applications can be found on our website. Apply here.

There are several opportunities to volunteer or serve at this hunt. Join us in the battle to show God’s grace and combat veteran suicide. Apply to Volunteer.

First and foremost, we need your prayers. Pray over the entire event and everyone involved. Pray that lives are changed. Pray the Jesus’s presence is felt.

We need meals for each day. Those include lunches and dinners on Friday and Saturday. There is a brunch style meal on Sunday. Churches, businesses, small groups, and individuals are welcome to contribute in this capacity. Charlie 22 can purchase the supplies if needed to.

We need places for lodging for veterans. This event is family friendly, so lodging may be needed for spouses and/or children. Hosts are not required to attend the event activities, but they are welcome too.

Sponsorship opportunities are available. Full sponsorships are $264 per veteran. Although the cost can be greater depending on their travel, we use that number to coincide with our ongoing Operation 22 A Day fundraising campaign. However, any amount contributed is a blessing.

Thank you for all of your support. More details will be added as we prepare for this weekend.
