Wounded Warrior Sailing |
|
This organization is also know as Wounded Warrior Sailing because the founder, Mike Strahle realized the need to create a Disabled Sailing Destination for the growing number of disabled people in America today. Whether wounded in battle, fighting for the U.S. or just wounded during the struggle we call life, we accommodate everyone Why sailing? Because Mike has
been a healthy and active quadriplegic for over 20 years and believes
sailing has been the catalyst for his continued healthy lifestyle, he
believes others can learn from his experiences. Thus, another major
mission of our organization is to promote Healthy Living and Recreation for
the disabled. Our Keynote Speaker believes: |
