Volunteer Guides for Veterans | Amazing People.
Design • Development • Illustration • Copywriting
Meet Doc. Doc is a Vietnam vet who's spent decades fishing the waters of Upstate New York.
He's the type of guy that gives apple pie a run for its money when it comes to being an American.
Doc runs a fishing guide service and what started as chit chat with other guides in the area has turned into a full-blown network of guides throughout the country who offer no-charge outdoor excursions to our country's veterans.
We were connected through a mutual friend and offered to help Doc transition from a dated site built on a Vistaprint site-builder platform and give him something that was manageable for his guys and attractive and user friendly for veterans and guides alike. It was the least we could do.
