I really want to thank the people who donated items for our raffle at wednesdays meeting. Thanks to Kent[Reiterrat] at 3 Rivers Marine and Tackle for the GL2 1083s STR, the 2003 GLoomis backpack, the Lamson Litespeed 3.5. Thanks to Nathan at Avid Angler for the fly box filled with 42 beautiful steelhead flies. Thanks to Mike at Ted's for the Action Optic polarized sunglasses. Thanks to Frank Amoto for the 5 books from Amoto Publishing. Thanks to Rich Simms for the North Umpqua Foundation limited edition steelhead print. We had a very successful raffle [$509] all due to the generous donations[and 50 men with
a desire to help]. Please support these local businesses .
At the December meeting we will raffle a very, very nice metal steelhead sculpture[wall hanging] donated by Dean Nickle at Dean's Specialty Welding[the Steelhead Studio]. Ted's has some displayed and for sale. Thanks Dean.

Don't forget Nathan Keen at Avid Angler for the great box of steelhead flies!

Great turnout, thanks to all who made it out.

All I can say if your club or organization needs a great presentation contact Bill Mcmillan. He provided one heck of a presentation and provide some real educational insight to hatchery reform.
