Veteran Recreation Ohio is proud to be working alongside the talented creators of Lines of Hope—a new documentary currently in pre-production that shines a light on the resilience of Columbus, Ohio area veterans through the art of fly fishing.
With support from the Greater Columbus Arts Council, this film celebrates renewal and connection. It weaves together powerful personal stories, showing how nature, craftsmanship, and shared experiences on the water can help restore purpose and peace.
Directed by Brett Langolf, produced by Andy Stiebler, and captured through the lens of award-winning cinematographer Andrew Jowett, Lines of Hope promises to be more than a film—it’s a movement of compassion and storytelling. We’re honored to support a project that aligns so closely with our mission: empowering veterans through meaningful outdoor experiences.
