For veterans looking for support, Disabled American Veterans (DAV) is a nonprofit charity that provides a lifetime of support for veterans of all generations and their families, helping more than 1 million veterans in positive, life-changing ways each year. Annually, the organization provides more than 600,000 rides to veterans attending medical appointments and assists veterans with well over 200,000 benefit claims. In 2018, DAV helped veterans receive more than $20 billion in earned benefits. DAV’s services are offered at no cost to all generations of veterans, their families and survivors.

The New Jersey Vineland Veterans Memorial Home, located in Vineland NJ, is one place DAV is helping veterans as needed. To support our veterans NJBBA offers two fishing trips each year for those disabled veterans in the Vineland location. For details and more information on all NJ veteran homes visit:

It’s now a time when we can bond and put smiles on some faces of those who have served their country and in some cases paid a heavy sacrifice. The events last 3 to 4 hours and starts at 8:30 with NJBBA members setting up all the food and gear. The veterans arrive around 10am, start fishing and are served lunch by the great cooks of NJBBA.
NJBBA gives one on one assistance along with supplying all the food, beverages, snacks, tackle and bait along with a thank you gift from NJBBA for their service (blanket, hat, shirts, sweats etc). Many NJBBA members have already signed up to help -- BUT it is not to late for YOU to come and support our veterans
The trip is to a fishing pier in Stone Harbor, the town supplies a handicap Joni and the use of their pavilion on hot days. All proceeds come from donations; the event is organized by Director Ron Patten
