7th Annual Cast One for Hope: Raising Money with Single-fly Event

Casting for Recovery, a non-profit organization offering free support and educational fly fishing retreats for women with breast cancer, is excited to announce its 7th annual Cast One for Hope event to be held September 27-28, 2019 in Hamilton, MT. This year’s event includes a Kick-Off Party, an all-day guided float on the Bitterroot River and caps off with a Celebration Dinner showcasing live and silent auctions with fishing awards given. 

“The Cast One for Hope gives anglers from across the country an unforgettable day of guided fly fishing while supporting a great cause. Anglers are out on the beautiful Bitterroot River in the fall to raise money to help provide the CfR experience to women who have been diagnosed with breast cancer” says CfR Executive Director, Whitney Milhoan. 

Angling Registration is open to the public at $1100 per person which includes the Friday Kick-Off Party, a full-day guided float including lunch, and attendance at the Saturday Celebration Dinner at Flying Horse Montana in Corvallis, MT. Tickets for the Kick-Off Party, $40, and Celebration Dinner, $100, may be purchased separately on the event website.
