George Reed is area coordinator of Reel Recovery, which was founded in 2003 by a group of avid fly fishers, inspired by their buddy's ongoing battle with brain cancer.

Combining expert fly fishing instruction with directed "courageous conversations", the organization provides men with all forms of cancer a unique opportunity to share their stories, learn a new skill, form lasting friendships and gain renewed hope as they confront the challenges of cancer. This group is focused on the Oklahoma retreat started at Beavers Bend State Park near Broken Bow.
