In the first ever Easter Turkey Harvest, the Lazy Lab Hunting Club hosted a total of twenty-four veterans, active-duty personnel, and their dependents in perhaps the most impactful outdoor therapy opportunity we’ve accomplished yet! Not only were awardees able to harvest, as shown in the image below, but the fellowship and mending that occurred proved to be at the heart of the matter. Thank you so much to the following personnel for making this year’s event such a memorable and impactful experience: LLHC Chairman/Cofounder, Mr. David Desrosiers. LLHC Board Member, Ms. Nicole Amelio-Casper M.A. LLHC Volunteer, Mr. Joshua Arnett. LLHC Team Member, Mr. David Goodman.

What a weekend it was for the Lazy Lab Hunting Club! This year, we conducted the Inaugural Easter Turkey Harvest in Six Mile, South Carolina, providing an amazing weekend of turkey hunting for two American US Army Veterans. This event not only was a weekend for the veterans, but their families were also invited to share in the love and fellowship. In all, twenty-four members of the military community (active-duty personnel, veterans, and their dependents) took part in our festivities and Easter celebration. Additionally, the Easter Turkey Harvest could not have been accomplished without the guidance of our Chairman and Cofounder, Mr. David Desrosiers. He and LLHC Volunteer, Mr. Joshua Arnett, built and led an experience that no one in attendance will ever forget due to its impactful nature.

Recently, I had the absolute pleasure to participate in the Lazy Lab Hunting Club‘s Salute to Women Service Members. During that time, I had the privilege of befriending USMC Marine Lisa Bodenburg. Lisa was nominated to be an awardee of the LLHC’s outdoor therapy program in which the emphasis is not on the harvest but rather on fellowship and community. It is our hope that those selected to participate on our events get to share in the immense beauty of the great outdoors and are overwhelmed by the understanding that the LLHC cares tremendously about the service member’s health and mental wellness. By the looks of it, I’d say Lisa truly enjoyed the camaraderie of friends such as LLHC Liaisons Shane Luttrell and Mark Gular as well as the picturesque environment in which the hunt took place.
