Women’s Coffee Connection ~ May 12th
Our first Idaho2Fly Women's Coffee Connection was held in April and we had a great turnout! All spouses of past or future retreat guests are invited. Enjoy connection with other women who understand the unique journey of loving a man with cancer. No fixing, no pressure, no expectations —just real conversation with women walking a similar path. If you our missed our first gathering, don't worry … Our next gathering is coming up MAY 12th ... See you then!
Fly Fishing 101 Classes
Classes for past and future retreat guests began in April and continue on consecutive Wednesday evenings through May 20th. Enjoy a fun evening of great instruction, continued fellowship with our Idaho2Fly community, and pizza - of course! Make sure to let us know ASAP that you are coming so we can plan, set up the room and get enough pizza for everyone.
