The Renzetti Fly Fishing Fair is more than a learning adventure. It promotes fly fishing education and raises funds for two very deserving programs — Casting for Recovery- Florida and Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing
Casting for Recovery Florida (CfR-FL) is a unique organization that uses the sport of fly fishing as a way to contribute to the rehabilitation of breast cancer patients. Their purpose is to combine breast cancer education, peer support and the therapeutic nature of fly-casting to help survivors lead a life after their encounter with breast cancer.
Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing, Inc. is dedicated to the physical and emotional rehabilitation of disabled active military service personnel and disabled veterans through fly fishing and associated activities including education and outings.
The fun begins on Friday Dec. 4 with the popular “An Evening with the Legends” reception. The reception gives attendees the opportunity to bid on the many quality items in an auction format and mingle with fly fishing legends.
Wendy Radwan began fly casting 11 years ago, then fly fishing and about five yeas ago she became fascinated with flies and began tying. She’s from central Florida. Radwan is the president of a local Reel Women club with about 20 members that try to meet once a month.
All proceeds from the “Legends” reception will benefit Casting for Recovery FL and Project Healing Waters. The cost is $60.00 per person with RSVPs needed by November 25th.
Renzetti Inc. is recognized worldwide for their precision fly tying and rod building equipment. Renzetti is joined by R-Distribution LLC, Hells Bay Boat Works, Hareline Dubbin, Qualia Quality Reels and Custom Ghenooe to sponsor this year’s fair.
