“THE Mountain River Fly Shop and Swallow’s Nest Fly Tiers will hold a Charity Tye-A-Thon on January 23 for the Tiffany Johnson Benefit Fund. We have a really strong list of fly tiers lined up for the event, plus some big name tiers contributing flies to the Tye-A-Thon Raffle. (January 23, 2010)
There are many ways to help out including volunteering to tie at the event, donating flies if you cannot make it along on the 23rd and buying tickets in the Major Fly Raffle, or simply walking in and supporting the tiers.” Tiffany Johnson Benefit
The fog of the holidays is over. The new year is before us and with that is a reminder to help those that are right in front of you. Cut a check and/or send flies for auction to: TJBF, c/o Mountain River Fly Shop, 1200 West Main No 7, Cotter AR 72626. The Benefit is January 23rd. Make a move this week so the organizers can use this lead time to stage this important event.
SPP that is very kind. I am writing a check tomorrow and it will be in the mail Monday morning. Every little bit (or big bit) helps. Flies for the auction are very important as well, so all the excellent tiers need to step up….I plan on mailing out 3 sets of flies as well…that is a little harder, because once you commit to donate flies they have to be well tied and each pattern has to be uniform in appearance, or should be. Thanks for commenting and leading the way.
