Heroes on the Water Lowcountry Chapter @Mingo Point

About this event

Join the Lowcountry chapter of Heroes on the water for a day of fishing and fun on the water as we help each other heal 1 cast at a time.

Come join the Lowcountry Chapter of Heroes on the Water for a Fun day of Kayaking and Fishing in our South Carolina waterways. As always, all HOW-Lowcountry events are free to attend for Veterans, Active Duty Service members, First Responders, and their families. All locations are TBD by weather and water conditions.

Our event will run from approximately 0800 to1300. Please arrive 30 minutes early to receive your fishing gear, instructions, and safety brief, so we can get you on the water and fishing as quickly as possible. You will be paired up with a HOW volunteer for the event. Lunch will be provided for all participants and volunteers, but you are welcome to bring your own snacks/food/drinks if you have special needs/preferences.

Veterans, Active Duty, and First Responders: if you are not registered with the Lowcountry chapter, send an email to the chapter so you can be added to the chapter’s invitation List.
