CFF SPRING FLING THIS SATURDAY

Our Annual Spring Fling will be held at Round the Bend Steakhouse this Saturday, April 26, 2015.  We're going to have a great time! Tickets are $30 and are available at the door if you haven't picked them up yet.  You'll get coffee and donuts in the morning and lunch in the afternoon.  Please don't forget to bring a pie to donate for dessert or the live auction at the end of the day.  The doors will open at 8:30 and the presentations will begin at 9:00.  Our featured speaker is Tim Holschlag, The Smallmouth Fly Angler, out of Minnesota and he is excited to share with us his expertise on catching these amazing fish.  We will of course have raffles and auctions for great fly fishing gear throughout the day, the Club Store will be open for business and our speaker will have a display where his books and DVDs may be purchased.
