CFR Kentucky/S. Indiana

The Kentucky/S. Indiana CFR program began in 2004. One retreat has been held each year, making 2013 our 10th year!  From the beginning, the Louisville Affiliate of Susan G. Komen for the Cure has been a generous supporter.

We are excited to announce that we are taking applicants from all counties in Kentucky and the following counties in Indiana -- Clark, Floyd, Harrison, and Scott.

Our retreats are staffed by a Retreat Leader, Fly-Fishing Instructors, Psychosocial and Medical Personnel. A past participant volunteers in a Hospitality Role. On the day that the women fish, we have River Helpers from Derby City Fly-Fishers Club, Trout Unlimited, and other expert fly-fisher people to work one-on-one with the women.
