Details

Come out and join us for a great guest speaker!

Kelli Jackson is going to come out and share about two of her projects - Girls on the Fly (GOTF) & Next Cast Academy (NCA). Girls on the Fly is a 501(c)(3) that uses fly fishing to help girls build confidence, resilience, and a positive inner dialogue, pairing on-the-water skills with a curriculum on coping strategies and environmental stewardship. Next Cast Academy runs multi-day beginner fly fishing camps for kids ages 9–15 in Pine, CO, teaching casting, knots, and reading water while building independence through time outdoors.⁠

Come hear about opportunities for your kids or how you can be involved in supporting both efforts.

We'll fish Buchanan Ponds before & head to Tuscany Tavern after.

5-6pm - Buchanan Ponds Fishing
