2013 Hook the Cure Benefit for Cystic Fibrosis Foundation Promo (Gary Green)

PUERTO VALLARTA - It was a dream destination... A competition and a spectacular star-studded event, but its chief purpose was for a greater cause. A cause that garnered a bevy of support from people all over the world and generated $410,000 (USD) NET for the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
 
The Eighth Annual Hook the Cure was held November 7-10, in the glow of the Mexican tropical paradise, was much more than a catch-and-release offshore event. Participants enjoyed one of the greatest fishing locales in world. They also experienced first-class all-inclusive accommodations, gourmet meals, celebrity appearances, spa treatments and exciting nightlife. Glamour aside, all participants involved knew that there was a far greater purpose at hand.

"That's really the beauty of Hook the Cure," said Bob Huston, event co-chairperson along with Jeff Jennison. "Obviously, Puerto Vallarta is such a beautiful place and we're here to enjoy ourselves with the best of everything you could possibly imagine. But there is an underlying purpose, and that is to raise money for this worthy foundation. We did exactly that, and that's the most beautiful thing we all should take away from this experience."

Hook the Cure, an official event of the Redbone Tournament Series, has raised $2.8 (USD) million since its inception. This event could not be a success without the immeasurable worth of its mission and the many invaluable participants.

The Ninth Annual Hook the Cure powered by IOTEC will return to the Mexican Riviera from November 6-9, 2014. For additional information, contact Gary Green at (714) 494-4623 or through email at ggreen@cff.org.
