Event Reminder

Dear THCFF Members & Friends,

Life for Hill Country residents has been chaotic at best due to the recent flooding. The sorrows and damage endured by our friends and neighbors are overwhelming.

However, we are grateful for the life opportunity that remains and are determined to be part of rebuilding the future. Everyone receiving this newsletter is encouraged to participate in cleanup efforts in some way.

Here is a fun way you can help the Guadalupe River Flood Relief Effort.

Bring your friends and enjoy an afternoon of relaxed fun and learning. Prizes include guided fishing trips, casting lessons, hand tied flies, and fishing rigs.
