January Member’s Meeting

flyfishidaho — Mon, 10 Jan 2011 21:39:07 +0000

Just a quick reminder that the first member’s meeting for 2011 will happen on Thursday, January 20. Wayne Pickerell will be tying flies starting at 6:30pm and the general meeting will begin at 7:00pm.

The meeting will be held in the Trophy Room at Idaho Fish & Game Headquarters (600 Walnut St, Boise) and the public is invited.

It is now time to renew your membership for 2011. Just like a fishing license your FFI membership is good for the calendar year. The January meeting is a great time to renew that membership and it helps the club in our financial planning for the coming year to get those memberships paid sooner rather than later. It will also ensure that you continue to have full access to the website as well as the newsletter.
