USS Intrepid- Sea to Shining Sea
On September 15, 2018 Connected Warriors hosted the finale of our Summer Sea to Shining Sea Campaign on board the USS Intrepid. Connected Warriors goal was to spread awareness and to expand our mission across the country to help veterans, service-members, and their families. We are happy to announce we have reached that goal with national media coverage. Our final STSS event on the Intrepid was filmed and aired by The Sunday Today Show with Willie Geist.
We would first like thank each and every one of you for your continued support throughout the years. Without all of you Connected Warriors would not be where we are today.
We’d like to thank Major General William C. Mercurio for being our presenting sponsor and making this event possible! Also, a big thank you to all of you who were able to join us and be a part of our big day! Your support does not go unnoticed and we will continue to carry it with us as we expand.
We can’t wait to see what is in store for Connected Warriors and hope you’re all as excited as we are!

Red, White & Brew
Connected Warriors hosted our 2018 Boca Chamber of Commerce Festival Days event, “Red, White & Brew,” on August 28th. The event was free for all to attend but donations of K-cups and candy were accepted to send to our troops overseas.
The event consisted of games, food from J&J Fresh Kitchen, beer from Barrel of Monks, fresh juices from Swami juice and other light bites and beverages. Attendees were invited to participate in a yoga class led by our own local CW teacher, Commander Ken Bingham, and to participate in the different games we had set up. It was a great night for networking and introducing the community to who we are.
We were very pleased with the turn out for the event and truly appreciate the support of the community behind us. We were able to fill a giant box with coffee and candy for our troops and hope that when they receive their goodies it will “sweeten” their day.
