Y'all come tie one on with us...

[Phil Landry]

 

We will have a food truck, tying games, prizes, auctions, and some really heady brews.  What's not to like? All proceeds

go to the Memphis VA Hospital's Project Healing Waters chapter.  All tying materials will be supplied.  We will have multiple

stations with 3-4 vises, materials and lighting set up.   Feel free to BYOV... bring your own vise, but there will be plenty on

hand.  Y'all come tie one on for a great cause that directly benefits our military veterans.  

 

There has been a lot of recent negative press surrounding some other "charity veteran fishing programs"... please know that

Project Healing Waters is not associated with these.  100% of funds raised from this fun event will go to the Memphis

VA Hospital's PHWFF program.  We run 36 VA patients through three 16 week courses where they learn to tie their own flies and

they even build their own rods.  Then we take them fishing.  We were one of the first 10 programs in Project Healing Waters.

Now there are 208 chapters nationally.  We have documented and witnessed accounts that our program has SAVED LIVES.

That sounds like a good time! Memphis is a fun town! But a 5 hr drive. Won't make it, but great idea.

I'm in the same boat as Gavin, that looks like a great time.

The event was a huge success.  We raised over $2300, had a great turnout, and gave away a large amount of fly tying materials for contest winners.  It went well enough that we are going to make it a BI-Annual event.  Maybe the next one will be "Scuds and Suds"
