Guest Speaker

Joseph Woodke, originally from a small farming community in Port Hope, Michigan, enlisted in the US Marine Corps right out of highschool. Just over a year later Joey found himself deployed to Afghanistan’s Helmand Province in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. On his first deployment, he spent 8 months in combat operations, and on his second deployment, he spent 4 months supporting units fighting in Sangin, an area that saw some of the hardest fighting of the war. On March 29th, 2011, while on foot patrol, Joey stepped on a pressure plate IED, resulting in the loss of both of his legs and most of his hearing in his right ear. He spent over a year at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center  and eventually learned to walk with the use of prosthetic legs. While healing at Walter Reed, he was also awarded a Purple Heart and Bronze Star, with a V, for his actions in Afghanistan. 

 After medically retiring from the military, Joey moved back to Michigan to work on his family farm and attend college. After two years of the harsh winters, he decided to move south to Nashville, TN, where he graduated with a Bachelors in Business from Lipscomb University. He also took up playing disabled sports as a hobby, and fell in love with sled hockey. After a couple years, he went professional and made the US National Sled Hockey team, and played  in both the 2021 World Championship Games and the 2023 Bejiing Paralympic Games; taking home a gold medal at both events. After suffering a concussion in 2023, Joey medically retired from the sport. He has since transitioned to a nonprofit, veteran run disaster relief program, Aerial Recovery, and hopes to soon deploy in support of helping communities affected by natural and man made disasters.

Joey currently resides in Franklin, TN, with his girlfriend, Krystal, and their 3 rescue dogs and rescue cat. They both have a passion for animal rescue, and also foster animals in their home (18 and counting!). They aspire to one day open their own animal rescue and sanctuary
