Feeney provides CableRail for veterans’ retreat
Feeney, Inc., the manufacturer of stainless steel and aluminum railing systems, provided the Travis Mills Foundation with CableRail products for a waterfront cottage at the foundation’s recently opened 11,000 sq.-ft. retreat center in Maine.
Located on 17 acres on a lake in Hallowell, Maine, the Travis Mills Foundation Veterans Retreat offers an all-inclusive, all-paid place of rest and relaxation for U.S. military families, including access to water and land recreational activities along with on-site spa services.
“Our foundation is fortunate to have partnered with Feeney for the waterfront cottage at our national retreat center,” said U.S. Army SSG (Ret.) Travis Mills, president and founder of the Travis Mills Foundation. “America's military families sacrifice so much so that we may all live free, and we're honored that Feeney would work with us provide for our retreat.”
“The best part is that Feeney’s cable railing provides visibility for those veterans who are wheelchair bound to still enjoy scenic views of the lake, while also providing a durable product we'll be able to rely on for years to come,” Mills added.
Mills founded the non-profit organization in 2013 to help combat injured veterans overcome physical obstacles and strengthen their families while also offering much needed rest and relaxation. In 2015, with the aim of providing a place where veterans and their family members could return together to an active lifestyle, the foundation purchased the Maine property. Since opening its doors in June 2017, the retreat center has welcomed more than 54 military families — and plans to host families for at least 40 weeks each year.
Based in Oakland, Calif., Feeney produces residential and commercial construction products for exterior or interior applications include CableRail stainless steel cable assemblies, Quick-Connect auto-locking cable fittings, DesignRail aluminum railing systems with optional LED lighting, Sta-Lok stainless steel rods, and the Trellis Collection of garden trellises.
