Beer Tie Iron Vise--wow!

[Casey Peltier]

An enthusiastic and rowdy crowd assembled at the Colony Grill for a special fly tying event to benefit Casting for Recovery. Packets of materials were provided to those who registered, and the organizers had to quickly assemble more packets as demand was greater than anticipated. (thank you Ivan!) 

Once all the competitors had turned in their flies, the judges went to work--thanks to Carolyn, Virginia, Mark, and Ivan for their discerning examination of every entry.

Prizes went to Naomi, Josh, George, and Anthony. Congratulations! 

Mark brought his bargain estaz assortments and donated his proceeds to CfR--thank you Mark! 

Other generous folks added to the collection, and the grand total for the evening was $300.

Wow.

Thanks for helping CfR put on another fly fishing retreat for breast cancer survivors! (It's not all about the fish...)
