Hello everyone,
As most of you know Livingston suffered a catastrophic flood last week. Many homes and businesses were damaged or destroyed in town. Particularly hard hit was the Stafford Animal Shelter which lost their building and everything in it when the flood hit. There are funds set up to help the residents deal with losses but the animal shelter can really use help. Therefore from today until the end of July we're donating $10.00 from every retail fly line sale to the shelter. It's a start.....

#2Thanks Tom...that's wonderful! I need a couple of lines so I'll be ordering soon. I went to the shelter's website and they have plenty of ways for folks to donate directly if they want as well.

#5Quick update: Our local Community Foundation will be matching all donations until the end of July so your $10.00 becomes $20.00 - good deal. We recently had a couple from Big Timber donate $100,000.00 to rebuild the shelter. Private contributions now total over $122,000.00!
Thanks to you all,
Tom
Thanks to you all,

#6Just ordered two lines. It is a very nice thing you are doing. Is there a link also for donating directly to the shelter.

#7It would be nice if this could be posted in one of the maim forums. I don't think it gets as many views here. It could be taken down Aug 1.

#8Hi Joe,
Good idea - www.staffordanimalshelter.org/donate-or-make-payment/. This seemed to be the place for views at the time. Thanks for the tip.
Got your order - goes out tomorrow morning.

Well we raised $265.00 for the Stafford Animal Shelter through line sales! With the matching funds from the local Community Foundation you donated $530.00 for the animals. Alexis and I want to offer our sincere appreciation for all the help and a special thank you to those added an additional contribution and who donated on their own.
