Casting for Recovery is hosting its Spring Online Auction to raise money to fund their programs for women who have or have had breast cancer. This year, the organization will run 46 retreats in 33 states, incorporating counseling and educational services. These events are staffed by trained facilitators, including a psycho-social therapist, a health care professional (e.g. physical therapist, nurse), as well as fly-fishing instructors and river helpers. The attendees pay nothing because CFR believes there should be no barriers to participation.
Among the items in the auction are a weeklong trip for 8 people to Abaco in The Bahamas, lots of fine jewelry, fishing gear, and even a day of guided fishing for native Vermont brook trout with yours truly. Poke around and bid where you can. It’s for a great cause.
