| | Tie Flies to Support the Club! |
| what: |
It's that time of year again! As usual one of the highlights of the
Annual Holiday Dinner is the silent auction for flies
tied and donated by all of you. The proceeds from this auction are an important
source of funding for club events. Help out by tying one or more boxes of
your favorite flies and donating them to the club. It's fun and it is often
a real ego booster to see how much others are willing to pay for your flies.

| | New PFF Email Broadcast Service Rollout |
| what: |
In an effort to make our communication system more efficient, we will be introducing a new email service which will enable us to broadcast messages such as the announcement of the monthly speaker to our members. The new system, provided by Yahoo, will be similar to the Fishing Buddies scheme, but each
message will require a moderator's explicit permission before it can be relayed to the members. You will receive an introductory email from Yahoo groups, probably in November, when we add your email to the list. |
| | New Archive of Past PFF Home Pages |
| what: |
A new feature has been added to the website! We are
now archiving the past front pages of the website. To
browse to the index, click the link in the "Angler's
Curriculum" section on the current home page named "Back Issues". These pages serve as a historical record of the front page material, plus any
announcements made that month. |

Donate Used Fly Tying Equipment |
| what: |
The club is trying to establish an inventory of basic fly tying equipment for the beginners fly tying class. Do you have any "pre-owned" equipment that you'd like to donate? We are particularly interested in vises but all donations (bobbins, scissors, bodkins, stackers, etc.) are welcomed. |
