Our next meeting is scheduled for Monday, February 9th, at 12:00 PM in Club House One. We are excited to announce that our guest speaker will be Bill Smidt, Hindenburg Historian regarding the Hindenburg disaster which occurred in Lakehurst, NJ . For those who didn’t attend our meeting last month, we will also be collecting 2026 dues and issuing new ID badges. The dues will remain at $10 for the year. If you plan to renew your membership, please be prepared to do so at the meeting. We also warmly welcome new members to join our club.
Members are invited to enjoy coffee and donuts at 11:30 AM, just before our meeting begins at noon. This is a great opportunity to connect with fellow members in a relaxed setting.
We would like to remind everyone that while fishing is a part of what we do, our club is, at its core, a social club. Many of our members enjoy fishing, but it is not a requirement to join. We welcome anyone interested in social activities, whether or not you fish.
We are looking forward to a great year, and are already making plans for our Annual Picnic at John Bartlett County Park in June, a great event for our members and their families, there’s even a waterpark for the grandchildren.
