Hey Gitt,
Yes, Here are the details. I was going to post this in the next several days, but here it is in advance:
The Fly Fishing Film Tour will be stopping in Modesto, tentatively on Thursday, February 26 at the historic State Theatre in the heart of downtown. Proceeds to benefit Rivers of Recovery. Here is their mission statement; " Rivers of Recovery is dedicated to providing unique and meaningful recreational trips to disabled veterans, their families and the families of fallen soldiers at no cost to the participants. A nonprofit organization, Rivers of Recovery seeks to promote the building of self-confidence, foster a sense of empowerment, spark an enthusiasm for the outdoors and provide a sanctuary where enjoyment, relaxation and learning are the priorities. "
The costs of this showing of the Fly Fishing Film Tour have been underwritten by a generous Modesto area philanthropist, so all proceeds of ticket sales will benefit Rivers of Recovery. In addition, the Stanislaus Fly Fishers will be holding a raffle to raise additional funds. The State Theater offers a luxuriously intimate cinema and concert experience like no other in the region.
Tickets are not yet available, but I will make a post with further information as soon as they are.
Yes there have been some resignations at AEG Media, but an individual that worked for Warren Miller (the ski movie group) is buying the company. He is confident that he will be able to move forward in 2009. More information will be forthcoming.
