Annual Hunting Trip 2017 – Honoring Heroes in the Great Outdoors
The 2017 Annual Hunting Trip was an unforgettable experience, bringing together veterans, Gold Star families, and supporters for a time of healing, camaraderie, and adventure. Hosted by the Nux4Life Foundation, this trip provided an opportunity for participants to connect with nature, share stories, and honor the legacy of Corporal Claudio Patiño IV and all those who have made the ultimate sacrifice.
Set in the beautiful and rugged landscapes of [Location], the event offered a well-planned and safe hunting experience guided by seasoned professionals. Veterans and family members bonded over shared experiences, while also embracing the therapeutic benefits of the great outdoors. The trip was not just about the hunt—it was about building lifelong friendships, finding peace, and celebrating the resilience of those who have served our country.
Nux4Life actively works on supporting Scout Snipers throughout the Marine Corps as well as veterans who are transitioning back to civilian life.
Keeping with the tradition of giving back to one’s Alma Mater, Nux4Life has made the commitment to support Claudio’s Alma Mater, the 1st Marine Division Scout Sniper Schoolhouse as well as the other Scout Sniper School houses. Claudio graduated Scout Sniper Basic Course, Class 4-08, and Nux4Life will honor him by sponsoring awards given to Scout Sniper graduates and providing any other support needed.
The Awards given at the Scout Sniper School recognize the Scout Snipers who excel among their peers. They include the Honor Grad Award, Highest Shooter Award, High Stalker Award and Instructors Choice Award.
The Nux4Life Shooting Team allows Marine Scout Snipers to continue participating in competitive shooting sports.
Besides giving financial help to other Veteran Nonprofit Organizations, Nux4Life has developed internal programs that allow past and present Marine Scout Snipers opportunities to participate in outdoor activities. These outdoor activities provide them with a healthy outlet where they can share experiences, and fight their post war battles with others who have shared similar experiences. We have created the Nux4Life Shooting Team that allows Marine Scout Snipers to continue participating in competitive shooting sports. This provides an outlet that allows them to focus their efforts on shooting competitions and mirrors their past experiences as Scout Snipers.
Our program allows Gold Star Fathers to spend time with other men who have shared their experiences, hardships and work towards meeting our goal to mend the mind, body and soul.
We have created a program dedicated to Gold Star Fathers. We have seen that many times, the fathers of those who have made the ultimate sacrifice are overlooked and it is assumed that because they are the men in the family, they are able to grip the loss of their children better than anyone else.
Nux4Life has partnered up with various outdoor guides and outfitters to be able to provide top-notch hunting, fishing, and outdoor adventures for our Veterans.
These outdoor adventures allow us to take our Scout Snipers away from any distractions and place them in an environment where they can share their experiences with others who have shared their hardships.
