Board Meeting
Our annual re organizational dinner and meeting was held on November 3. Plans were started for our annual fundraiser and meetings for the coming year.
Membership Meeting
Our October meeting was held at the Lakeside Methodist Church. Our election of officers and directors was held and a full list of all can be found on the back of this newsletter. Members were able to hear from Phil Thomas from National TU give an explanation on their effort to add wood to many of our local brookie streams. It was good to learn the reason why some sections of our creeks are full of trees and how these benefits both the stream and the brook trout
found in them. Next membership meeting is January 12th at the DEF Building at the DuBois Penn State Campus. This is the kickoff of our fly-tying roundtable so it a good time to come and share some fish tales and see some great fly tyers.

FLY TYING ROUNDTABLES
For those unfamiliar with these, it’s an opportunity to meet and tie flies with others or share fish stories. While it is not a fly-tying class there will be vices and material along with people to help mentor those who would like to try learning to tie. This opportunity will be available to both Punxy and DuBois. So come and check it out.
Annual Banquet
Note the date is March 25th at the Falls Creek Eagles. That said we will be mailing each member a book of raffle tickets to sell or purchase themselves. Watch your mailbox in January for tickets and how to purchase your ticket to our event. We will have additional tickets for those who can sell more.
Help is also needed to solicit prizes. We can supply you with a letter of introduction if you’re willing to help.
Merry Christmas and a prosperous New Year
