Member Matters – February 2019

Dues are Due!

Did you receive the nice email reminder about your annual FCO dues from Membership Chair, Rick Pay, last month? If you missed it, here it is again for your convenience! The Flyfishers’ Club of Oregon is looking forward to 2019. We are planning great programs and several outings with friends, acquaintances and fellow members. Attached is your notice for your 2019 dues, which will be used to help fund those activities and more. As usual, a portion will also go to help build the foundation to fund various conservation and heritage related projects. We look forward to your continued membership.
