Uniting Veterans Through the Game of Golf.
OGA VETS, Inc. is a non-profit corporation organized to bring together past and current military Special Operations, like-minded veterans.
The mission of OGA VETS: is to allow the gathering of these American heroes in a safe environment where they can share common experiences, accomplishments, and current life goals that in many instances do not equate into their civilian lives. The goal is achieved through periodic retreats, with an emphasis on the game of golf, camaraderie, and interactions with ambassadors/sponsors who reflect their care for these American Heroes through their own participation in the retreats and their financial commitment.
OGA VETS Golf Trips Foster an Unforgettable Camaraderie
OGA VETS is an outgrowth of various golf trips that a group of us have organized and funded for the benefit of special operations wounded veterans. The golf outings are not played in a competitive environment but one of friendship and the type of light fun that golf can offer.
Sponsor a Veteran for a Memorable Golf Outing
Please consider sponsoring a vet for one of our upcoming golf trips. The camaraderie among the veterans on our golf trips is evident, particularly among those who have gotten to know each other primarily through prior trips with, and among, the sponsors, but this camaraderie is pleasantly contagious.
Testimonials
“I can't thank OGAVets & its staff & supporters enough. The relationships I've been able to maintain & build since retirement thru OGAVets facilitating opportunity have been instrumental to my recovery, progress & success in civilian life. Thank you for your ongoing support to our veterans & patriotism to our country.”
— Master Sergeant, Mike Lacy, Special Forces, USA, Retired
“I was invited to be a part of the “inaugural” OGA golf outing and have been with the boys every year since. Guess this makes me an OG of the OGA! But I can tell you that it’s a very special thing for guys like us, this trip, and something I’ve sincerely come to look forward to. It’s kinda like getting a call to play the majors when I get Sundance’s text: ”you in?” to which I respond “hell yeah!” without hesitation. I don’t even know where I’m going.”
— Senior Chief, Kenneth Hamill, SEAL, USN, Retired
“I have been involved with OGA Vets for four years and am grateful for the opportunity they provide and the support they give to our nation’s Heroes. OGA Vet provides a much needed means of relieving stress around like minded people and brothers in arms. Providing a safe place for us to talk about what’s going on in our life’s. And showing support with opportunities to play golf at courses that I would not able to afford otherwise.”
— Sergeant First Class, Keith Holland, Special Forces, USA, Retired
“I first had the opportunity to attend an OGA outing about a year ago when I thought there couldn’t be a better time for personal healing. I have come to realize more and more often that veteran struggles are long term obstacles we all deal with. I have been blessed with meeting folks just like myself while attending an OGA event. This organization has helped me make lifelong friendships with brothers who try and manage our emotional demons. I can’t stress enough how much this group of generous founders and ambassadors has changed my outlook and daily life. Thanks OGA!”
— Senior Master Sergeant, Tim Young, Pararescue, USAF, Retired
