Rivers of a Lost Coast

At the State theater last night in Modesto, the law offices of Jim Mayo, the Stanislaus Fly Fishers, and the Modesto Vet Center helped raise over $8,000 dollars for the program “Rivers of Recovery.” Dan Cook, one of the founding members of “Rivers of Recovery” was in attendance and gave a short presentation on how the magnificent program helps vets cope with the difficult emotional and physical challenges they return home with. Dan was proud to announce former presidential nominee Sen. John McCain recently signed on as an honorary co-chairman for Rivers of Recovery.

Between 200 and 300 addictive anglers along with their spouses and children filled the beautiful State theater. The Sierra Anglers Fly Shop, The Redding Fly Shop, Sage and a host of other local guides and expert fly tiers donated a stack of great gear and trips for a fund-raisser raffle. Jim Mayo, the event’s coordinator graciously returned the grand prize, a two-day stay on one of the Redding Fly Shop’s premiere private Northern California streams, back into the mix after his raffle ticket was called.

Rivers of a Lost Coast opened the show and received a strong show of support. It looks like there is a real possibility the full-length film will be returning to the State theater in April or May. Check our Screenings schedule for updated times and locations.
