Date: Monday, March 20, 2020 Hosted by: River Deep Foundation & Denver SCI HOP Location: Kilroy’s Workshop Participants: Operation TBI Freedom & Ft. Carson SRU This weekend we had an amazing time with a group of five veterans who gathered at Kilroy’s Workshop in Colorado Springs to learn the fundamentals of blacksmithing. Our Master Blacksmith Ron Hardman took his time to make sure everyone understood the safety procedures and what the class would entail. They learned a little bit about the history of blacksmithing and were shown some skills and techniques. The group then applied what they learned towards creating a Viking knife to take home with them. Thank you to our partners at Kilroy’s for providing the opportunity for our participants to experience this activity!

Saturday, March 6, 2021 Location: Denver Fencing Center Hosted by: River Deep Foundation and SCIHOP Participating Groups: Ft. Carson SRU, Operation TBI Freedom, Craig Hospital Fencing Instruction We have great group of men, women and children participants ready to experience fencing! We learned the fundamentals and then paired up for a dose friendly competition. There is a scoreboard which always helps to make some extra effort. Fencing is a workout so we occasionally had to stop, catch our breath and ask a few questions about our performance. It was a fun day of fencing with the bonus of getting some exercise. Huge thank you to Denver Fencing Center and to everyone who came out to participate. Bob Adwar President, River Deep Foundation/ Anglers of Honor VP, SCI Humanitarian Outreach ![]()

We had a few families that worked together during the night making beautiful baskets to take home with them. It was a relaxing night with a nice fellowship.
