A Round of
Resiliency
We will be sharing stories of resiliency during a fireside chat featuring Nick Kimmel and Adam Greathouse, along with Katie Bondy, Madison Hyzdu, and more.

Nick Kimmel
Nick fell in love with golf as a youngster, spending the long summer days of his youth playing and practicing, eventually becoming a scratch player. But despite the accomplishment, being the next Tiger Woods was not in the forefront of his mind.
Rather, he had a superseding drive, and that involved serving his country as a member of the U.S. Marine Corps.
Combat didn’t enter Nick’s picture until he was deployed to Afghanistan in 2010 and again the following year, which coincided with a major escalation of the U.S. mission, the death of Osama bin Laden in neighboring Pakistan, and the approach of the 10th anniversary of the Afghanistan war.
Tensions were high during Nick’s second tour of duty, and casualties and tragedies were common – and he was unfortunately on the receiving end of the escalating violence.
In December 2011, while building a patrol base for the Georgian army, to protect other soldiers Nick jumped on a 40-pound improvised explosive device (IED). The explosion ripped through his body. Miraculously, he survived, but lost both legs above the knee and his left arm above the elbow.

Adam Greathouse
Adam Greathouse is a combat-wounded Veteran whose lungs were severely burned by unknown chemicals while deployed to Kosovo. Doctors gave him a 2% chance of survival, but today, Adam dedicates his life to helping his fellow disabled Veterans.

Katie Bondy
Katie regularly participates in our Amputee soccer program and has recently partnered with US Amputee Soccer! She has always been involved in sports of some kind, with a love for lacrosse starting in middle school that resulted in playing in college at Wittenberg. She is also a lacrosse and soccer coach, on top of being a high school science teacher. Needless to say, she is full of energy and encouragement.
Katie has spina bifida and scoliosis. Recently, after a hospital admission from a staph infection in her bloodstream, which resulted in surgery to release the infection in her ankle, and a series of conversations with doctors, Katie and a team of orthopedic surgeons decided to move forward with an amputation to give her the best quality of life. Last year, she started a new chapter with a prosthetic and took her first steps in it!
