These days it’s great to share a story about good folks stepping up and helping their fellow man out there, and it’s even better to share one such story from our fly fishing compadres back home in Montana.
The good folks at Adipose Boatworks have launched a Raffle for Guides Who Row, raffling off a full Adipose 2020 package with 100% of the proceeds going to help support Adipose-rowing (or soon to be so) guides impacted, as we all have been, by this COVID-19 fiasco.
From their FB post on the raffle (and you do need to watch the entire vid at the link) –
PLEASE WATCH THE WHOLE VIDEO AND READ THE WHOLE POST….. Here at Adipose we have been blessed with the support of fishing guides all across the country since the inception of our company. Right now those guides are loosing money every day because of COVID-19. It’s very hard for them to get any compensation because of the unique nature of their careers. We want to help those guides out so we are going to raffle off a brand new 2020 Adipose package. 100% of the raffle ticket sales are going to be donated to all of the guides that are currently rowing one of our boats and any guide that has a boat on order with us. Our goal is to raise $50,000. We know that is a lot but we have faith that we can all come together and help those who have helped us so much.
The raffle tickets are going to sell for $25 a piece or 5 for $100. Currently we can only sell tickets over the phone so you’ll need to call us at the shop at 406-992-1519. We are also operating with a very limited staff due to the virus so when you call if you don’t get through please leave a message or keep calling. You can also email us your contact info at adiposeboatworks@gmail.com that way we can give you a call as soon as we get a chance. The raffle is going to run from now until President Trump lifts the social distancing guidelines. As of right now that is April 30th and if the President extends social distancing guidelines then we’ll extend the raffle.
Finally we have never done this before but we need to make this as successful as possible so we are asking everyone to tag three of their friends in the comment sections and share this post. Thanks for all the support, let’s raise a bunch of money for all the guides out there hurting and we are excited for one of you to win an Adipose. #adiposeboatworks #madeinmontana #helpingthosewhohavehelpedus #givingback #raffle #winnerwinnerchickendinner #creeksidemedia
