Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted August 7, 2009 Root Admin Posted August 7, 2009 There are 10 soldiers participating in next month's event here on Lake Taneycomo. We're putting together a fly box for each soldier with trout flies. Not asking for many from each person... it's not going to take much... but if you can, send me 10 or 20 or 30 trout flies - you've tied or not. Be sure to give me your name and at least city so each soldier will know who has donated the flies. Send them to: 367 River Ln Branson, MO 65616 attn: Healing Waters Thanks!

Rolan Duffield Posted August 7, 2009 Posted August 7, 2009 Phil: I'll have an assortment of flies for you when I arrive on the 9th of Sept. I won't be able to participate this yeat due to previous commitments. I really enjoyed the time with them last year. Wish we had more notice. Rolan
Members gordon Posted August 14, 2009 Members Posted August 14, 2009 This is a great cause and I was honored to sit down and tie some flies for these heroic individuals. I will be mailing to you about 60 flies tomorrow (red zebra midges, black zebra midges, jujubees and mercury midges in amber, blue and olive). While I was tying flies my 12 year old (new to fly tying) asked what I was tying flies for when. When I told him he tied up about 15 san juans and asked me to send them along with the other flies. Tell the soldiers my family and I are grateful for their service. Sorry, I didn't have a good way to send them without them getting mixed up. So, you may have to sort them out when they arrive.
Root Admin Phil Lilley Posted August 14, 2009 Author Root Admin Posted August 14, 2009 I'll need names and addresses of all who donate flies please. Thanks!
Members gundog Posted August 15, 2009 Members Posted August 15, 2009 Next time I stop in, I'll drop of some flies.
