ODO had the privilege of sumitting #mountmonadnock with the #veterans (and one USMC boot to be) from Eljen Corporation led by president Jim King ⬇️⬇️⬇️ “Eljen has been committed to supporting, hiring, and training veterans since our veteran-founder Joseph Glasser started the business in 1970,” says company president James King, Retired U.S. Army Captain. “I am immensely proud of what we have accomplished and what we will continue to do.” Eljen’s focus is to #hirevets and they do just that. What you don’t see is the true family environment that Jim has created within the walls of Eljen! Jim, it was amazing to watch what you’ve built and we are honored to be a part of your ongoing #veteranprogram We are looking to our next two hikes in the #whitemountainsnh Sam Barrett

ODO had the pleasure of sharing our amazing Polaris Inc. #utvs with a beautiful organization blessing the #autismcommunity called Sun, Moon & Stars, Inc serving the greater #watertownct area! Their mission to provide families with children on the autism spectrum with activities, events, and programs that are fun and educational, while also building a sense of community. This organization is led an amazingly kind and committed woman named Christine Faressa, MBA. The video can only share a small portion of laughs and joy but hopefully you get the idea! The ODO Team thoroughly enjoyed our time with SMS and look forward to our fall family day! Special thanks to DJ Gregory, founder of WALKING FOR KIDS FOUNDATION, for your continued and appreciated support of our mission and those we serve! Thank you HOPS ON THE HILL FARM BREWERY for just being an amazing facilitator of program and to and all the landowners that literally make this program possible! We truly appreciate you! #betheblessing #autismawareness #autismmom Sam Barrett Matthew Udal Tracy Robinson Bill Geist
