Donald Koch, founder of Hyner Lodge Foundation, describes the annual Family Traditional Butchering event and explains how U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Baltimore District donated an 80-by-40-foot building to the foundation following closure of the Spring Valley Formerly Utilized Defense Sites project in Washington, D.C. The building, which previously housed a detonation chamber, now serves as a horse barn and storage facility supporting programs for wounded, injured, and disabled veterans. The donation saved taxpayers an estimated $150,000 while providing the foundation with infrastructure to expand services. Koch continues a family tradition practiced by his grandfather and father, bringing together approximately 80 veterans for traditional butchering of one steer and three hogs at the January event.
