June 2013 Newsletter
Being that I am the club member that puts together the newsletter each month, it is odd being designated as the person that is also writing the introduction for this month’s presentation, especially since I am involved in it. Usually, our guest speaker emails me their bio and a picture and I take care of the editing, but this month I am going to attempt to handle both.

Our Mission
- To promote, improve and enjoy all phases of fly fishing.
- To maintain a high standard of true sportsmanship and promote social relations among its' members.
- We, individually, endeavor to take at least one youth (beginner/no age restriction) fly fishing annually; instruct them, to the best of our ability, in the art and responsibilities that are soon to be wholly theirs.
- To fraternize and cooperate with organizations whose aims and purposes preserve our waters and to promote the sport.
- To provide instruction and information in fly casting, flytying, rod building and entomology. These classes and/or clinics will be open to the public with no fee
