Project Healing Waters Fly Fishing Trip 


Our next event is Saturday, August 21st, 2010 on the South Fork of the Boise. Our first float trip of the year was a huge success. I would HIGHLY recommend you participate in this event. It is a fantastic way to show your appreciation and give back to our vets. It is a toss up on who enjoyed the day more between the volunteers and the vets. If you know anyone who owns a boat and may be interested in the program please forward this email along to them. Here are the details:


  • Float: Upper boat ramp to Indian Rock  
  • Time:  Meet at 9 am at the upper ramp, have the boats in the water around 10am and take out at Indian Rock around 4:30 pm.  
  • Bring: extra rod and any extra waders you can spare.

Our target group for this event is veterans of the Iraq/Afganistan wars who are enrolled in any of the VA hospital rehabilitation programs. This event will include National Guard soldiers who will deploy this Sept. The goal of this event is to combine the soldiers who are about to deploy with the veterans who have been deployed in the Iraq/Afghanistan wars.

The newest member of our program is Colonel Pat Kilroy, US Army, stationed at Gowen Field. He is coordinating this event. He has the support of the Idaho National Guard senior command as we work to combine these groups for this event.

Please invite or forward this email to anyone who may be interested in attending this event.

Please contact Pat Kilroy (Event Coordinator) at pkilroy86@hotmail.com and Lew Goldman (Drift Boat Coordinator) at lew.goldman@colliersidaho.net.

Tight lines to all,
