DownloadWe are interested in historic memorabilia that might relate to Fly Rod Crosby. People may have copies of newspapers that her column appeared in, post cards featuring Fly Rod, original correspondence from her, or family records of personal anecdotes. If you know of any such keepsakes or souvenirs, we would like to know. Scans or other suitable images would be appreciated.

The Friends of Fly Rod is a committee of volunteers solely dedicated to the single purpose of creating this three-dimensional, outdoor, life-size or greater, permanent representation of Miss Crosby to stand at the DIF&W HQ in Augusta.
The Friends of Fly Rod are partnering with the Professional Maine Guides Association and its Maine Guides Education Fund (MGEF) to process donations. The MGEF is a 501(c)(3) public charity, which means that donations are tax-deductible in the USA.
The MGEF has established a separate account at Katahdin Trust Co. to hold funds received for this cause. All contributions to this account will go to the creation of the statue, minus necessary fees, e.g., web site hosting.
Contributions will be accepted until the funding goal has been met. Recurring donations are welcome, uch as a contribution each year, (2024, 2025, 2026). Donations of $250 or more will be acknowledged by a mailed receipt in keeping with IRS regulations.
