"What we do is try and show them the passion that we have and get them back in the outdoors and just show our appreciation for them as people," said Director of the Amarillo Outdoor Adventure Foundation Britt Cornwell. Thanks for a nice job. http://www.txoaf.org Posted: Aug 18, 2011 8:00 PM CDT By Christie Post Local veteran gets adventure of a lifetime 2:43 IDALOU, TX (KCBD) - A simple gesture for one disabled veteran made him realize he was capable of doing anything. The Outdoor Adventure Foundation provides hunting and fishing adventures to combat disabled veterans under the age of 40 and terminally ill children and young adults under the age of 25. Thanks to the foundation, Army SPC Reas Axtell got to go on a trip of a lifetime. "There are things that you would like to do, that you are not capable of and this was one of those things for me," said Axtell. Less than two days out on the J Bar J ranch in Clarendon, Texas showed Axtell he was up for any challenge. http://www.kcbd.com/story/15294251/local-veteran-gets-adventure-of-a-lifetime
