🇺🇸💜 20 YEARS OF HONOR, CONNECTION, AND HEALING — IN THE PLACE WHERE IT ALL BEGAN! 💜🇺🇸
🦌 🏹 🎣 THE 20TH ANNUAL CAMP HACKETT EVENT!
📅 October 22–26, 2026
📍 Phillips, Wisconsin
Twenty years. Countless memories. One extraordinary place! 🇺🇸
The Wounded Warriors in Action Foundation (WWIA) is incredibly proud to celebrate a remarkable milestone as we prepare for the 20th Annual Camp Hackett Event at our Northern Healing Center in the beautiful Northwoods of Wisconsin!
🌲 Nestled deep in the Wisconsin wilderness, Camp Hackett holds a special place in the heart and history of WWIA. This is where our Foundation's journey first began, and for two decades, this extraordinary place has brought our nation's combat-wounded Purple Heart Heroes together through the healing power of the great outdoors.
🏹 From pursuing trophy whitetail deer and black bear to wing shooting for ruffed grouse and fishing for monster muskies, our Heroes will experience the very best of Wisconsin's Northwoods! With rugged terrain, unpredictable weather, and breathtaking wilderness, Camp Hackett offers an authentic outdoor experience that challenges, inspires, and creates memories that last a lifetime.
💜 But the true magic of Camp Hackett has never been measured by what was caught or the harvests taken. It's found in the camaraderie, the conversations, the friendships forged around a campfire, the time spent enjoying a game of pool, or time spent in a boat or a blind. It's about the powerful bonds shared between Heroes who understand one another like few others can.
🙏 As we celebrate this incredible 20-year milestone, we extend our deepest appreciation to the wonderful residents and businesses of the Northwoods, our dedicated Hosts, Guides, volunteers, donors, and the countless supporters who have helped make Camp Hackett such an extraordinary part of WWIA's history.
A special thank-you to Bob Bolz, Tom Schenk of Chippewa River Custom Rod, Casey Williams, the Deleasky family, John Carlson, Ross's Sport Shop and Guide Service, Dave Hintz and the incredible Hides for Heroes Team, Waupaca Foundry, Dragonfly Energy, Christopher & Dana Reeve Foundation, Mike Reed of I.M.A.C. Enterprises, Kabco Builders, the Wounded Warriors In Action Eagle River Muskie Chal-Lunge Team, Soo Lake Bar & Grill alongside Scott Prescher and the Wisconsin Veterans Service Branch Team, J. Pechauer Custom Cues, Olhausen Billiards, and everyone who has contributed to the success of this remarkable event over the years!
🇺🇸 To our Heroes: Here's to another unforgettable adventure filled with friendship, fellowship, and the healing power of the great outdoors. We hope you have an outstanding time!
💜 20 Years of proudly serving America's Purple Heart Veterans and providing Honor, Connection, and Healing!

And just like that the 3rd annual North Dakota pot hole duck hunt is in the books. All heroes had a great time expanding and learning new duck hunting skills. More importantly they had the opportunity to connect with fellow Purple Heart veterans and continue the lifelong healing process. This event hit all the foundation goals in Honor, Connect and heal. Thank you to Pat, Sharon and CJ for all that you do.
