PATRIOT SPORTING CHALLENGE
Our Mission is to conduct fun, fair, competitive sporting events and activities to support charities which benefit the families of American Military and First Responders.
Join in on the fun in 2024 - Listen to what Kevin has to say
Protecting our Freedom and Safety is no Small Task!
The right to be free and safe from harm is not free, and it’s not without sacrifice from those who have given their all to keep us safe from domestic and/or foreign conflicts and the everyday perils that happen all too frequently on our streets! We, Patriot Sporting Challenge, salute these heroes, both our military veterans and our first responders. Every one of us has the opportunity to serve, even if it’s not in battle or responding to emergencies in our neighborhoods. On June 1st, 2024, 350 people did stand up and serve with their financial support and willingness to give of their time and help with our 6th Year Anniversary of the Patriot Sporting Challenge event. Our 2024 event was once again a fantastic testament to the generosity of our supporters and a wonderful thing to witness!
It was the first time since 2017 when the Challenge began that we experienced twice as many golfing participants as anglers:
104 golfers
52 anglers
350 caring and supporting individuals attending our afternoon/evening “Celebration of Patriotism”
Record receipts from people who opened up their hearts and their wallets, our largest $ support ever
Record receipts from the on-line auction
For the Patriot Sporting Challenge, it was a distinct honor to be able to distribute your dollars of support to not just one major charitable beneficiary, but two: the Folds of Honor, whom for us is a Texas state wide organization, and Heroes Ranch, another great local charity lodged here in Wood County which provides a remarkable outdoor living experience for those who have made the ultimate sacrifice. We are proud to announce a third charitable beneficiary joining us in 2025: Purple Heart Homes, a national organization which provides housing, repairs, and support for our heroes. All of these organizations fit our charter and provide services of tremendous support to our military heroes, our first responders, and their families.
We are looking forward to 2025, when we can provide another great opportunity for everyone to get involved in supporting our Heroes.

The Lake Fork Challenge in 2025 – “Golf, Casino Games, & Fun”:
The format will once again start with a morning golf competition at the Links at Lands End. Each team of 4 players will compete against the other teams in a scramble format. At the conclusion of that event, participants and their guests will gather at the Neon Moon for food, entertainment, and casino wagering in a Las Vegas-style format for prizes.
