Shout Out to Coastal Wrestling Championship!
VLP Clients with Deco Drive's Chris Van Vliet (center)

For the past few years, clients from Victory Living Programs' Social and Recreational Program have enjoyed attending the Coastal Wrestling Championship competitions. The wrestlers have gotten to know the folks from Victory Living Programs (VLP) and always make a point of coming over to speak and take photos with them. "The pro wrestling business is something that has brought all walks of life to our shows - it brings everyone together. Thank you to Victory Living Programs for being so loyal to Coastal, it's always a pleasure to have your clients attend our events," said Head Trainer Pablo Marquez.

This past month, the folks from VLP had an additional treat when they had the opportunity to meet Chris Van Vliet, four time Emmy winning entertainment reporter with South Florida's WSVN's famous Deco Drive, who was on-site covering the event.
