We have donated lake and pond management services and fish stocking to the Victory Junction Camp in Randleman, NC since the camp opened in 2004. It is an amazing place. Seriously ill children have the time of their lives! Campers have arrived and the camp will be buzzing all summer until school starts back again.

"WOW!!!!! I finally had a chance to walk over to the farm pond and check out the work you all did on the farm pond. WOW!!! My husband, another board member and myself went to see your work. WOW!!! We are speechless.... it doesn't look like the same area. I am super impressed of the quality of your work. I want to say.... thank you for all your work and working with us. I can not wait to show... the Raleigh NCDEQ office the pictures of our farm pond. I plan to get the remaining votes for the trash rack to complete the project. Again, WOW

-David - Monroe, NC

“We have been working with Mitchell for the past 2 ½ years, and I just wanted to pass on what a good job he does. I work with service providers on a daily basis, and most of the time I feel like I have to jump through hoops to get anything done quickly. However, Mitchell almost always answers my calls and if I do get voicemail he calls me back within the hour. I can’t say how much I appreciate being able to get in touch with him as soon as I have issues or questions. We have been really pleased with the progress of our ponds, and the size and health of our fish. Mitchell seems to really know his stuff, and I don’t feel the need to do extra research on him recommendations after I get off the phone. That’s worth a lot to me as well!”

-Cameron - Greenville, NC
