President's Message

I’m writing this message the night before Fran and I leave for New Zealand for a month. I will bring back lots of photos.
I want to thank Bill Carnazzo and Mike Howes for co-chairing the responsibilities for the booth at the ISE show, and thank all of the volunteers that helped man the booth throughout the show.
I want to recognize the co-chairs of the Conservation Committee, they are: Bill Hagopian, John Carroz, Mike Laing, Tom Petty, Robin Egan, Kent Ripley, Bryan Woodhouse, Ronald Otto, Mel Odemar and Jim McGowan. You're invited to attend their next meeting at the Raley's Market conference room in the Roseville store next to Target on Douglas at Rocky Ridge Rd. at 5:30PM on Thursday, February 14 before our general meeting. I look forward to the new Committee’s ideas and enthusiasm. Keep up with this important GBF mission at the Conservation homepage at: http://www.gbflycasters.org/conservation/conservation.htm
We have lots of clinics and fishouts in the months ahead, so check the Fishout Schedule and Annual Calendar and make the most of it. Mike Howes and his dinner committee are doing a great job, and Mike has some more surprises in store for us, so don’t delay, buy your dinner tickets soon, for the dinner will be a sell-out again this year.
The Mentor Program is moving along well; Joe Aichroth tells me that six members have been assigned a Mentor to date. If you have any questions regarding what a Mentor could do for you, contact Joe Aichroth or myself and we will be happy to explain the program.
Well, I am way behind on the many things that I have to get done before I leave, so this Presidents Message is going to be short. I will miss the next Board and General Meetings, but look forward to seeing you all at the March General Meeting which is the night before our Annual Dinner.
Tight Lines! Rick Radoff President |
