This is an awesome trip for a great cause. If I wasn't going to be away that week with the family I'd definitely put a bid in. Coming from a military family, I know how much gestures like this help our guys who come home banged up. Thanks for putting this together.

Incredible deal, if I could travel that week I'd be in...

This is seriously my dream trip. A week with these guides on the Block alone would EASILY be worth 2 grand. If I wasn't literally working 24/7 , I would find a way to make this happen. Hats off to Commando, all the people who donated, and all those who bid.

win, loose or draw, $ 2,200.00
