San Antonio, Tx HAMB'rs Where are y'all??

Can any of you SA HAMB'ers help me with name and/or contact information for the shop down there that helps train wounded vets to work in the automotive industry? Our Austin car club is looking for a vet oriented group to donate some money to. This place was featured in "Rides", "Overhaulin", "Two Guys Garage", ...one of those type shows...in the past year or so. Any leads appreciated.

Wounded vets training place?

Taken from their site:

Recognizing that some wounded troops are interested in working on cars, we have a program called Automotivation where the guys can get out of the barracks and go and work on cars at the Lonesome Dove Land and Cattle Company,a ranch outside San Antonio. The owner has been very kind to us by extending the invitation and the space in which the guys can work on cars. The wounded troops who are in our Automotivation program have been invited to show they two vehicles they have built, a 1957 Dodge Power Wagon used by the Army as a Weapons Carrier, and a 1966 Cobra Kit car at the 2011 SEMA Show (Specialty Equipment Manufactures Association) in November. The Automotive team has worked very hard on these vehicles and will show them with pride and accomplishment.

I love San Antonio. My grandfather used to be president of the South Texas Truckers 20years ago. He used to drive a light blue 55 chevy & had a stable of 34 ford p/u's & 60's SS Nova's. Any of you South Texas Truckers out there?
