Brass Bonds is a veterans activity group that brings vets together on the gun range or in the gym. Each event ends with an informal group round table talk on mental health with a guest expert on non medicinal treatment options.
We have an adaptive group workout with the Uptown VFW 246 at Los Campeones next Saturday, only 4 spots remaining: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/ballentine-bootcamp-tickets-54669096740
And a group shoot with Operation: 23 to Zero at Modern Sportsman in Burnsville next month, February 23: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/23-to-zero-south-metro-shoot-tickets-54708640015
Finally I’m personally working with Twin Cities Veterans Initiative to run this fundraising class at the same VFW Post 246 early next month: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/tcvi-permit-to-carry-fundraiser-class-tickets-53188400939
Feel free to share with any fellow veteran who would be interested in coming out! As a Marine myself, I felt that the best way to bring vets together was under the camaraderie of live fire range time or just a challenging group workout. That hunch has been proven true over the past 3 years of events, here’s a promo we shot recently: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8QBj6gRkMk
