Whisky Juliette
We are here to listen and to be pillars of support for our guardians at the gate, to remind them of their purpose and keep them moving forward.
About Whisky Juliette
Whisky Juliette is a non-profit community organization funded by the community, that is dedicated to enriching the lives of our veterans. Through the exposure to the healing elements of nature, outdoor experiences and other veterans, we aim to give our veterans purpose. Founded by veterans for veterans, we understand the unique camaraderie that comes from our shared experiences. Our mission is in our statement “to be pillars of support” and “to remind them (veterans) of their purpose”.
We provide that platform where veterans can share that experience again. Whisky Juliette is committed to helping veterans explore, connect and rediscover their purpose again.
Right now we are raising funds to start our first trip. Our aim is to work out the bugs this summer and be fully funded and running trips no later than the summer of 2026. Please be patient as our site is still under construction. If you have any questions or comments, our contact information is at the bottom.
Our Services
At Whisky Juliette, we offer a range of services designed to cater to the adventurous spirit of our veterans. Our activities are outdoor adventures like hiking, canoe/kayaking, to more tranquil pursuits such as fishing trips and nature retreats. Each of our activities is carefully planned and executed by experienced professionals, ensuring safety without compromising on the adventure. We also provide all necessary equipment and training, making our adventures accessible to veterans of all fitness levels. Our services are not just about the activities themselves, but also about fostering a sense of community and camaraderie among veterans. At Whisky Juliette, we believe in the power of shared experiences and the bonds they create
6 day Canoe/Kayak/Camp Trip
This is our bread and butter. We start the canoe/kayak trip in Corpus Christi and head south down the Laguna Madre for 3 days and two nights. We camp along the shore bringing all our supplies with us. We end our trek in Baffin Bay at Loyola Beach and head over to the King Ranch for our base camp for the remainder of the trip. At the ranch is where we will close out the trip with bonfires, BBQ and other activities
Equipment and Training
Regardless of the skill level, we provide all necessary equipment and training. This makes our adventures accessible to veterans of all fitness levels. Our experienced staff are always on hand to provide guidance and support, ensuring that everyone can participate and enjoy the activities safely and confidently.
Community Building
At Whisky Juliette, we believe in the power of shared experiences and the bonds they create. Our services are not just about the activities themselves, but about creating a supportive community for veterans. Through our activities, veterans can connect, share their experiences, and grow together, fostering a sense of camaraderie and mutual support.
