Poverello’s 5th Annual Double Haul Fly Fishing and Fundraiser Saturday
by jhwygirl
Boy – couldn’t have better weather for a fly-fishing competition and evening fundraiser, could you?
Missoula’s very hard-working homeless shelter, The Poverello’s Center will be hosting its 5th annual Double Haul Fly Fishing Fundraiser Saturday, with Kettlehouse Brewing providing adult beverages and Two Sisters of Montana helping out with the food.
Who’s doing the stand-up? Of course, Mayor John Engen…
There’s also Bob Wire – who not only does some mean stand-up, he is multi-talented with both voice and gee-tar.
So don’t miss it people. Even if you don’t do the fly-fishing part, the evening fundraiser starts at 5 p.m. downtown in the Governor’s Ballroom of the Florence Building.
P.S. – Hey Kettlehouse! Fix that webpage!

the social safety net is only as strong as the community that supports it.
and despite the haters out there who equate an emergency shelter with downtown’s economic struggle, this community is hugely supportive of the Pov.

A worthy cause and a great fundraiser. Thanks for reminding people about it jhwyGirl. Unfortunately I will be out of town that night so I am going to miss one of Missoula’s great bands, Bob Wire.
One reminder to people attending. Use the Higgins Avenue entrance to the Florence Building. I discovered the hard way that the building usually locks the Front Street doors at 6 PM sharp each night.

No trout torture for me, but the evening festivities sound great. Is Missoula ready for Engen and Wire tag-teaming comedy show?!
The Pov does such an amazing job at such difficult work; they are first on my list when I win the lottery!
Thanks for spreading the word about having fun for a good cause.
