Press Release Summary: Log Home Company steps up to support Coalition to Salute America's Heroes 2007 Annual Road to Recovery Conference, bringing together 350 wounded veterans and their families to Walt Disney World
Press Release Body: Rocky Mount, NC - November 28, 2007 - In The Woods, one of the nation's top companies providing custom, affordable log home packages to consumers across the U.S. and abroad, has pledged their support to the recovery of severely wounded veterans and their families. Parent company, AmerLink, announced today that they have signed on as a sponsor of the Coalition to Salute America's Heroes 2007 Road to Recovery Conference in Florida.
"By supporting the brave veterans who have sacrificed so much for our freedom in the War on Terror, we at In The Woods are also supporting our customers, our neighbors, and the 'family' of In The Woods associates, many of whom have friends and loved ones who have served or are currently serving in the nation's Armed Forces, including myself," commented John Barth, President and CEO of In The Woods. "The Road to Recovery Conference is an important and tangible way to demonstrate our support to our troops and their families," Barth added.
The Coalition to Salute America's Heroes (CSAH) is a nonprofit, nonpartisan organization dedicated to helping rebuild the lives of severely wounded veterans from the War on Terror and their families. CSAH spearheads this annual event to provide wounded troops, their families and caregivers with one source of information regarding benefits, services, counseling, insurance, healthcare, financial support, career counseling and employment opportunities.
"When it comes to providing substantial benefits for seriously wounded service members and their families, no other organization does more throughout every stage of the recovery process than the Coalition to Salute America's Heroes," commented Stephen Slater, Director of Operations for In The Woods. "As a fellow veteran, it was a natural and privileged decision for us to sponsor the Coalition's conference and we hope to remain involved with CSAH in an effort to raise more awareness for the needs of our returning heroes and their families," Slater added.
Held November 30 - December 5, 2007 at the Walt Disney World Dolphin Hotel in Orlando, Florida, this is more than just a recovery conference for injured veterans and their families. It's an all-expense paid vacation offering an opportunity for families to reconnect, relax and have a little fun at Disney World, while at the same time providing centralized access to some of the nation's top resources including the VA and the Department of Defense, as well as educational seminars led by the country's most influential speakers.
