The Spa and Sauna Company, a hot tub, swim spa and sauna dealer with 3 retail showrooms serving the greater Reno and Lake Tahoe area is proud team up with Sundance Spas and the charity “Wish for Our Heroes” to award Daniel Rogers, a local veteran a free hot tub to thank him for his service. The hot tub was delivered on May 4, 2018.
Daniel, a 30-year-old husband and father of two, is a 9-year member of the Nevada Army National Guard and has been on two year-long deployments overseas and a training mission in Haiti. During his mission in Haiti, his wife, Michelle Rogers, was pregnant with their daughter. During his first deployment, to Afghanistan, Michelle was pregnant with their son, who was born 5 days before Daniel returned home.
Wish for Our Heroes is “a national 501(c)(3), dedicated to providing resources to the “average” active-duty military member, in order to make their deployments a little easier, and to improve the quality of their family lives while home or during deployment,” according to their website.
“Sundance Spas also chose to partner up with Wish for Our Heroes because most of the donations goes to the cause. 100% of individual donations and 95% of corporate donations go directly toward granting wishes. They’re an amazing group and we couldn’t have asked for a better partner,” said James Choi, Channel Marketing Manager for Sundance Spas.
Daniel is the first veteran in Reno and Nevada to be awarded a spa through the Hot Tub for Heroes program, which is the partnership between Wish for Our Heroes and Sundance Spas. So far, together the two organizations have donated spas (or are in the middle of the donation process) with 17 veterans nationwide, according to Garrett Guinivan, Mid-Atlantic and Rocky Mountain Chapter Director for Wish for Our Heroes.
Daniel, who is a military police officer, wrote in his application essay about his second tour, which was in Kuwait, “This one was much more difficult on my wife and the children, as the kids were older and they definitely missed me terribly. I am home now spending some much-needed time with my family, but still am ever ready to answer the call when it comes,” commented Rogers.
On the spa delivery day, Daniel and Michelle both said that they had never won any contests or something of this scale before. They are truly thrilled to have a hot tub now and have been using their Sundance Hamilton several times a day, either before work or for some family time.
“The team at The Spa and Sauna Co., are very proud to be able to fulfill this Hot Tub for Heroes donation, granted in conjunction with the Wish for Our Heroes foundation and Sundance Spas,” said Spa and Sauna Co. Owner Scott Clark. “We are also incredibly grateful to Daniel for his Service to our country and the sacrifices he and his family have made during his deployments. We hope that Daniel and his family are able to enjoy years of relaxation, stress relief, and family bonding time from their new Sundance Hamilton.”
To encourage local residents to check out the benefits of using a hot tub, swim spa or sauna to help improve their overall health and well-being, the company is providing free hot tub and swim spa test soaks. They do recommend, however, that people wanting to schedule their free 30-minute soak call them ahead of time to reserve their spot.
