Healthy Taimen Festival | Mongolia River Outfitters

Healthy Taimen Festival | Mongolia River Outfitters

We have funded the Healthy Taimen Festival program since it was started by Mongolia River Outfitters, a YDCCF Premier Lodge Partner. MRO’s flagship community incentive program is conducted in partnership with BioRegions International and the University of Washington.  Health professionals who also happen to be enthusiastic anglers along with Mongolian health professionals volunteer their services to local school children before joining a scheduled MRO/FM fly fishing adventure.  Children receive health screenings and treatments from doctors, dentists, and dental technicians at these multi-day events. To date, MRO has helped provide screenings for over 1000 children.  The Healthy Taimen Festivals are a celebration of all things taimen and include games and conservation education programs.  Local school kids also receive much appreciated supplies for their upcoming school year. This grant is supported directly by Mongolia River Outfitters through YDCCF’s Lodge Partner Program.
