WFS 050 – Project Healing Waters with Jerry Lorang | Veterans, Mentorship, PTSD and Fly Fishing

27/11/2018/i Podcast /af Wet Fly Swing Fly Fishing Podcast
http://traffic.libsyn.com/wetflyswing/Jerry_Lorang_PHW_Fly_Fishing.mp3

Show Notes: wetflyswing.com/50

I connected with Jerry Lorang, the Deputy Region Coordinator for the NW Region for Project Healing Waters.   Jerry shares some stores about the lives of some of the members including my cousin Mark.

We talk about family, fly fishing and how Project Healing Waters has become one of the big resources for veterans struggling with PTSD and various other issues.  I hope you are ready for some inspiration.

Conclusion with Jerry Lorang

It was really interesting to get a behind the scenes view of one of the most important resources for veterans and fly fisherman around the country.

“We are about fly fishing, but we are really not about fly fishing at all.”
