Lakeshore “Lima Foxtrot” 2014

Lakeshore’s “Operation Rise & Conquer” outdoor adventure Lima Foxtrot program is here at Camp ASCCA this weekend!

From the Lakeshore website at: http://www.lakeshore.org/lima-foxtrot/

“LIMA FOXTROT” is the brand name adopted by Lakeshore to describe what has become one of this country’s premier, comprehensive, year round, sport, fitness, and recreation programs for severely injured members of our Armed Forces who were injured post 9/11. Initiated in 2006 in response to the significant numbers of injuries from conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, LIMA FOXTROT has served over 1,800 injured servicemen and women and their families, from thirty-six states and territories. Through LIMA FOXTROT these young men and women use lessons from sport and recreation to learn how to pursue life after injury.

In one sense, “LIMA FOXTROT” simply represents the organization providing the programs, “L”akeshore “F”oundation. However, LIMA FOXTROT also represents the spirit of Living Fit, which describes the outcomes associated with participation in these programs. Further, LIMA FOXTROT reminds us all of what the courage of these men and women means to our daily lives, Liberty and Freedom.
