What People Are Saying About AFFI:
"...and thanks for all the gear you gave me. I've been using it almost every week and been tying my own flies. Even my daughter gets excited about tying them when she comes to visit." ~ Operation Iraqi Freedom Disabled Veteran, Colorado Springs, CO.
I can't stop thinking about the young men at the retreat
and the amazing changes that happened in four short days.
It was so worthwhile and I'm looking forward to the next
opportunity to serve our veterans.

To Adaptive Fly Fishing staff and volunteers:
With a little less than two weeks left before the voting for the top Pepsi Refresh projects ends, the staff and volunteers here at Marine Parents would like to root you on in your endeavor!
We have been voting for Adaptive Fly Fishing all month long with hopes to see you all climb further up the leader board! We really enjoy what you are doing for our Wounded Warriors, and we are so glad that you guys are trying to help the disabled veterans in your community lead more normal lives.
You and your staff does such a wonderful job! We are proud to support you as we are proud to support any organization that supports our Wounded Warriors! As this month's competition comes to a close, we will continue to vote and support Adaptive Fly Fishing daily!
Good luck to you all, and have a beautiful day!

Having been a professional [a criminal and civil law judge] before I retired, I can understand the purpose of your program. It would appear that governmental agencies, rehab centers and similar health care organizations would desire to have 'certified professionals' working with their clients, and I am pleased that there is currently an organization that is attempting to fill that void. We here at Fly Anglers On-line wish you well in your endeavor.
Sincerely yours,
Neil M. Travis
