MOVING FORWARD, THE RIVER PROJECT'S VISION is to discover, design, fund and upgrade access to the lower Toccoa River public-access site, 1/4-mile downstream from Curtis Switch Road, and draw the community of river stakeholders of all kinds together to complete the project.
Financial support of Trout Fest '25 and the Toccoa River access-upgrades project is based on tax-free, fund-raising programs of two kinds structured to provide your organization with participation options at many levels:
- TROUT FEST '25 EVENT SPONSORS -- A multi-tiered program that allows your Trout Fest event sponsors to choose the exposure of your brand, services and products to our visitors through key placement of your brand and message across many channels of donating to Trout Fest.

- TROUT FEST '25 COMMUNITY HEROES -- Trout Fest Community Heroes choose to donate specifically for funding the discovery, design and direction of the upgrades envisioned for the public-access site on the lower Toccoa River, one of Georgia’s most recognized and prized trout fisheries and paddling recreation sites. BRMTU’s 300+ strong chapter membership will encourage and coordinate additional project funding through a range of private donations and public grant programs., solicit community stakeholders and resources, and direct community outreach spending in accordance with the mission of Trout Unlimited.
