RANGELEY - Thirteen women who have or had breast cancer learned how to fly fish while participating in the Third Casting For Recovery Day Camp in Rangeley earlier this month. According to recent report from Elaine Holcombe of Oquossoc, the women came to meet other women with similar experiences, to fly fish, and to gain some respite from their everyday concerns surrounded by Rangeley’s beautiful natural setting. The women were treated to a full day spent with a personal fishing guide, a lunch provided especially for them, and a culminating dinner held by the Rangeley Guides and Sportsmen’s Association at the clubhouse. Dan Tarkinson, president of Fly Fishing in Maine and a guide for the day, thanked the spouses of the participants and the guides who donated their day for Casting for Recovery. read more
