SEAL Team Vero Beach took guests on an ‘Extraordinary Odyssey Exploring Time, Space, Technology and Teamwork’ at the Quail Valley River Club to benefit the National Navy SEAL Museum and its Trident House Charities.
After enjoying cocktails poolside, guests settled in for dinner and remarks from the keynote speaker, Ret. Navy SEAL Capt. and NASA Astronaut Chris Cassidy.But before they could, museum executive director Grant Mann announced that the SEAL Team Vero Beach Assault Force was engaged in a snatch-and-grab mission that they were able to show via “live feed.”
As the assault force stealthily made their way in from the Indian River Lagoon, creeping through a crowd of unsuspecting Quail Valley club members at play poolside, they retrieved two boxes containing top secret items from two nefarious terrorists, who looked suspiciously like event co-chairs Don McClure and Dr. Jim Schafer.The crowd breathed a collective sigh of relief as the mission was completed but were then taken by surprise as the dining room doors burst open, and the team members they had just seen via live feed entered the room to check for un-friendlies. After determining that the room was secure, the team delivered the cache and returned to the field to ready for their next mission.
Afterward, in a video presentation, Mann gave a brief history of the museum, explaining that the nonprofit’s mission is to preserve the history and heritage of the Navy SEALs and their predecessors, to honor the fallen at the Navy SEAL Memorial, and to care for special operatives’ families.Trident House Charities program is the museum’s four-pillar approach to support the needs of our special operations families,” Mann explained.
