Re: {Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} October Beer Tie hosting Casting For Recovery - Seeking Raffle Donations

Sorry for much belated thanks from Casting for Recovery! 
You all exceeded my highest expectations, 
and the final count was $346. Woo hoo! breakfast and lunch at our next retreat, folks! That's 
just nifty.
Special thanks to our judges Mark Sofman, Rich Farino, and Rob Snowhite, who 1) didn't flinch 
when asked to step up, and 2) took their job very seriously in spite of libations consumed 
before to going to work.
Congratulations to Connor Donovan who won the Regal vise
and to newbie tyer 
Leslie Trexler for her boobie pattern. Her prize was a flytying book.

Big welcome to all the ladies who came out--stay tuned for a Holmes Run stocking and 
we'll meet for some fishing. Good short casts catch lots of fish, believe me!

If I'm not mistaken, there is support for another of these Iron Fly [or should it be Iron Vise?] 
events. Stay tuned; the  caliber of last night's entries indicates some serious competition!

Big thanks to everyone who came out, bought raffle tickets, donated items or participated in the Iron Fly contest. Casey may need to correct my semi-sober count but I think $341 was raised last night for Casting for Recovery!


The winner of the Iron Fly, who took home the regal vise was the very talented Connor Donovan, with a sweet sculpin pattern.



Thanks to our raffle donors:
Mark Sofman with the omnipresent library and vest
Art from Orvis Tysons/TPFR for the Reels
