BFC Supports Reel Recovery
Reel Recovery is a 501 (c) (3) non-profit organization, started in Colorado in 2003 by several members of the south Metropolitan-Denver Cutthroat Chapter of TU.
Currently, we offer eight, 2 1/2 - day retreats (12-men dealing with or cancer survivors per retreat) with all-expenses paid for the participants. As funding becomes available, we continue to expand our service areas which currently involve eight states: Colorado, Utah, Montana, Michigan, Kentucky, Nevada, Northern California & Oregon.
Annually, we do several fundraisers, including two auctions scheduled for this year, one in Utah and one in Metropolitan-Denver area. Additionally, we have had numerous volunteer river helpers come from TU chapters and local fishing guide businesses.
If you personally know someone facing life-threatening cancer and believe they would benefit from a Reel Recovery retreat, please have them visit our website www.reelrecovery.org or have them call 1-800-699-4490 for more information.
If you can contribute to or attend an auction, tie flies to support a retreat, volunteer to assist a retreat participant for a 1/2 or full-day on-site fishing, or provide assistance and support in others ways, please go to our website to the HOW TO HELP selection and click on DONATE, SUPPORTERS or VOLUNTEER and fill out the requested information.
Spoken so fondly by our many participants -- Be Well! Fish On!
