Title: Project Healing Waters
Post by: Jack Hise on August 18, 2009, 10:58:31 PM
On September 15th the Lynchburg Fly Fishing Club will begin a 4 week program in conjunction with the Murfreesboro VA Hospital. 

8 fly tying kits have been received from PHW as well as 8 TFO 9' 5 wt. 4 pc. rods all rigged with reels, backing and line.  Also the club has raised close to $100.00 for tying supplies.

Our contact at the VA is trying for a starting group of 10 out patient veterans. 

We have a member that teaches fly tying and a member that is a certified
casting instructor.

We are going into this somewhat blind and have no idea of what do or expect!  It is agreed that this is to be a pilot program leading to a long term program. 

Wish us luck!  We may be back asking for more help!
