In the dead days of the off season for the Colorado Avalanche, what better way to spend your time than fly fishing and supporting a good cause.
Peter McNab will be at The Battle at Boxwood tomorrow, and you should be, too!

Along with Peter McNab, former Colorado Avalanche player Shjon Podein will be participating.
If you’re looking for something to do on a Saturday afternoon in July, you could do a lot worse than heading down to check out an event that tries to raise money for a worthy cause. If you’re unable to make it down, you are able to donate online here.
