Risers 4 Rett: Celebrating 10 Years.
From our humble beginnings as a grassroots movement in 2014 to now hosting three well-organized events annually, we've made remarkable progress. We extend our deepest gratitude to all past event participants, fly-fishing guides, sponsors, supporters, committee members, and auction bidders. Because of YOU, in the past 10 years, we have raised about 1 MILLION DOLLARS for the Rett Clinic at Children's Hospital Colorado! Thank you!
We are thanking the man who started it all: Orlin Camerlo.

Risers 4 Rett Events
Fun, camaraderie, and lots of great fishing!
Risers 4 Rett is a fundraising arm for Rocky Mountain Rett Association. We host three events each year:
Two Fly Fishing Tournaments, one in the spring and one in the fall, where teams have a fun competition with other teams. The tournaments occur in the world-class waters of the Gunnison, Taylor and East River in Almont, Colorado.
A women’s fly fishing event to create a time and space for women to enjoy the outdoors and gather together in a fun and healthy setting.
Whether you are a fishing novice or an expert, our events are about learning and relaxing while supporting a good cause. It’s all about “Do what you love to help someone else.” for R4R that means it’s helping maintain the Rett Clinic at Children’s Hospital Colorado.

WHY WE DO IT?
Fighting Rett Syndrome
Rett Syndrome is a neurological disorder that affects young children, mostly through loss of speech and motor control.
Rett can severely disrupt breathing and eating, cause skeletal deformities and physical seizures, and leads to tremendous emotional duress. As you can imagine, Rett presents many challenges to patients and their families. Fortunately they receive love, therapy and assistance through the Rett Clinic at Children’s Hospital Colorado.
All proceeds from the Risers 4 Rett events go to Rocky Mountain Rett Association and the Rett Clinic at Children’s Hospital Colorado.
Our Sponsors
“I wanted to thank you ... for such an amazing, and heart-felt event! I was blown away from the start with the gifts, lodging, food, setup, etc. However, I was most impressed with the folks I met and the genuine sense of community that can be found among the participants of Risers! What a treat… I can’t wait until next Fall.”
