Join Trinity Oak on October 21, 2022, at River Ranch Stockyards in Fort Worth, Texas for its “Back the Brave” fundraiser.

River Ranch Stockyards is hosting the Trinity Oaks Star Kids (TOSK) program this October. TOSK is a special program for the children of our fallen first responders and combat veterans. What TOSK aims to do is help these sons and daughters and honor their families’ sacrifice with unique outdoors experiences. Mentors, or better, a “Hunting Buddy” is paired with each child, the pairing is with a member of the fallen first responder’s agency or military branch; they become hunting certified, hunt together and life-long friends.
