Oak Brook Chapter, Trout Unlimited - Thank You!
This past weekend Reeling & Healing Midwest attended the Oak Brook Chapter of Trout Unlimited’s (http://www.obtu.org/) Annual Banquet. It was held at the Brookfield Zoo in Brookfield, IL. There where auction items galore (C&D won a couple items), food, drink and good company. By all accounts, the event was a great success for OBTU, and we congratulate them.
We were guests of Wally & Patrica Bock and the OBTU Board. We had a great time. Thank you so much for your generous invitation and including us at your fund raiser.
At this time, we’d like to extend a special thank you to Wally for his help and support throughout the year with Reeling & Healing Midwest. His impact and contribution have been beneficial to everyone. And a special thanks to his wife, Pat, for letting him go the 6 weekends a year to help at our retreats (we will get her up at a retreat this year).
OBTU, a big thank you for all the good work you do for the streams, rivers, conservation and the fish.
On behalf of OBTU, we would like to thank all the great people and companies who donated the auction and raffle items. Even Ron Barch, a guide and bamboo rod maker from Michigan, attended and donated a few items including a guide trip, to show his support for OBTU.
It’s events like these that help organizations, like Reeling & Healing Midwest, who rely so heavily on their community of supporters to succeed. In addition, it helps introduce us to new people and expand our network. And even if just a few people offer their support or spread the word about us, it helps our programs and most importantly, the individuals who participate.
We appreciate it all.
Fish On!
