Reel Recovery - Float the whole durn thing

Post by Drifter54 » Tue Mar 03, 2009 2:13 pm

My name is Ken Richards. I am a fishing guide from Bentonville and a cancer survivor. I talked to the NWA chapter at their last meeting about Reel Recovery, http://www.reelrecovery.org . It is a fly fishing retreat for men who have or are recovering from life threatening cancer. We will be having our first retreat in Arkansas on October 23-25 at Cedarwood Lodge on the White River.

I am doing a fundraiser of floating the Buffalo and King's Rivers. The Buffalo float will be from Boxley to the White hopefully beginning on March 23rd. Maybe there will be some water by then. The King's float will be in May sometime and floating from Marble to Romp Hole. I am doing this like a walk-a-thon with pledges per mile floated. Both of these floats will be made in my drift boat and rowing. I will be updating my blog, http://www.justfishinguides.wordpress.com with pictures and commentary during the trip.

If anyone would like to pledge you can contact me at 479-531-5741 or justfishinguides1@cox.net . There are also pledge sheets at Pack Rat, McLellan's Fly Shop, Lewis and Clark and Sportsman's Warehouse in NWA.

Thank you for your support.

Can someone please get me some rain. The float is looking shorter and shorter as the day gets closer for the float. March 23.
