Reeling and Healing is a non-profit organization offering fly fishing wellness retreats to women battling and surviving cancer. The organization’s mission is to introduce these women to the healing powers of fly fishing through a one-of-a-kind experience, on and off the river, which renews their spirit and hope through the combined elements of fly fishing, nature, peer coaching, camaraderie, and support. A percentage of the evening’s live auction will go to benefit this organization.

Individual tickets are $50 each or reserve a table for 10 in a prime location for $450.
