Our PPF club has sponsored Project Healing Waters/Fort Carson and has been the the recipient of a wonderful fly fishing venue several times a year at Cross D Bar Trout Ranch in the Wetmore Mountains near Westcliff, CO.
This is to announce their first annual Fishing Tournament on August 13th and 14th being held at the Cross D Bar to benefit their fishing programs which provide the thrills and challenges of fishing and outdoor recreation for wounded soldiers, the disabled, physical challenged , kids and the elderly.
