Delivery Day

On the day of the delivery, Rose and Dennis were so thankful for the donation.

Their backyard patio had a space that looked like it was made for their new Sundance Hamilton 780 Spa, once they moved their self-standing hammock out of the way.

“We’re just really grateful and excited,” Rose said.

About the Wish for Our Heroes Program

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.

Together Sundance Spas, Wish for Our Heroes and Sundance Spa dealers around the country will have donated hot tubs to 73 veterans nationwide by the end of this year, said Ariel Najera, Channel Marketing Manager for Sundance Spas. The collaborative program, Hot Tubs for Heroes, was started in 2016. The organizations intend to continue donating hot tubs to veterans.

Rose is one of the 19 veterans and active military members selected in 2020 to receive a free Hot Tub, although most of those hot tub deliveries were pushed out until 2021. Recipients for the 2021 calendar year have not yet been selected.

This is the third spa donation in Nevada. All of these spa donations were through The Spa and Sauna Company.

About Our Recipient

Rose, now 37, joined the Nevada National Guard with her best friend in 2002, shortly after graduating high school. She said they signed up with the intent to take advantage of the GI Bill educational benefit. She is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Business Administration, in addition to working full-time.

Rose currently serves in a supervisory human resources role, managing the administrative paperwork for over 800 soldiers. Rose dreams of joining the Washoe County School District as an Elementary School teacher, after she retires the military, in about 6 years. At that time, she will have served in the National Guard for 20 years.

In 2004, Rose was deployed to Iraq, where she served as a Motor Transport Operator, assisting with transporting supply and equipment to numerous bases in Iraq. Later in her deployment, she was assigned as a Gun Truck Operator, her mission being to provide convoy security to numerous units convoying across Kuwait and Iraq.

“To this day my deployment to Iraq has been the most challenging, but most rewarding time of my military career. During my deployment it made me value the meaning of teamwork, hard work, comradery and made me value life more than I ever had before. My deployment will always be a momentous time in my life in which I was able to meet some of the best Soldiers and leaders whom to this day consider as my brothers and sisters in arms.”

Among those brothers and sisters in arms are The Spa and Sauna Company’s 1st Wish for our Heroes recipient, Daniel Rogers, and our 2nd Wish for our Heroes recipient, Kevin Vogt. She happens to know both of them. While they weren’t deployed together, she shares a Battalion with Kevin Vogt and works in the same office building, but not department, as Daniel Rogers. Read more about those donations here and here.

Dennis also served active duty overseas, in Afghanistan, with the Military Police in 2010 and 2011.

What Participating in This Program Means to The Spa and Sauna Company

As for The Spa and Sauna Company team, Wish for our Heroes delivery day has become one of our favorite days when we can see how hot tubs really change people’s lives.

“We, at The Spa and Sauna Company, are honored to fulfill this hot tub donation, in conjunction with Sundance Spas and Wish for Our Heroes,” said Spa and Sauna Co. Owner Scott Clark. “We are incredibly grateful to Roseanne and Dennis for their Service to our country. We wish Roseanne and her family years of enjoyment, family time and hydrotherapy benefits from their new Sundance Spa.”

We wish Roseanne, Dennis and their family a lifetime of happy hot tubbing in their Sundance Hamilton Spa!
