This April, a meaningful event is bringing High Desert veterans together for more than just a day on the golf course. Heroes on the Green, hosted by DAV Chapter 92, is a no-cost Veteran Golf Outing designed to foster connection, support mental wellness, and create a welcoming space for those who have served.

Taking place on Monday, April 13, 2026, at the Apple Valley Golf Course, the event invites veterans from across the region to enjoy a relaxing round of golf while building relationships with fellow service members. While the setting may be a scenic course, the purpose goes far beyond the game.

At its core, Heroes on the Green is about camaraderie. It provides an opportunity for veterans to step outside their daily routines, spend time in a positive environment, and connect with others who share similar experiences. Whether someone is newly transitioning into civilian life or has been part of the veteran community for years, the event is designed to strengthen bonds and reduce isolation.

Organizers emphasize that this outing is not about competition, but about community. Time outdoors, shared conversations, and simple moments of connection can make a lasting impact, especially when it comes to mental health and overall well-being. Events like this remind participants that they are not alone and that support exists right here in the High Desert.

The outing is open to all veterans, though space is limited and registration is required in advance. Those interested in participating can reserve a spot by emailing the event organizers directly at dav92billkinnard@gmail.com.

As the High Desert continues to grow, initiatives like Heroes on the Green highlight the importance of creating spaces where community members can come together with purpose. In this case, it’s about honoring service while building meaningful connections, one swing at a time.
