BFT Team,
This year’s annual disabled vet fishing event has been cancelled. There have been management and personnel changes at the VA in SLC which have resulted in a change of direction for the SLC VA. The new management team has decided to change their model away from supporting group events to supporting individual events. This means they will no longer support our event. Without the VA’s support my team does not have the resources or bandwidth to make this event happen.
I have been working with my contact at the VA to try and work something out but we have been unable to do that currently. We have decided to take this year off and try to work with some political contacts to see if we can regenerate the SLC VA’s support for our event.
I know many of you will be greatly disappointed as you’ve supported this event for the past 11 years. I want to thank you all for that support and ask that you give us this time to see if we can get these issues resolved.
Thank you all for all your support for this event which started on BFT and couldn’t have been successful without it. Hopefully we will be able to pick it back up next year.
