Brewer H.S. Fly Tying - 29 OCT - 1 NOV
It's that time of year again, when the Penobscot Fly Fishers teach basic fly tying to students of the Brewer High School Outdoor Education Program. Our club has offered this opportunity to B.H.S. for several years now, and it has always been a successful collaboration. As members of the Outdoor Education Program, these students are attentive, appreciative, and eager to learn from us. And for us, this is one of our club's major public outreach events. This year we will be at B.H.S for four days, from Monday October 29 through Thursday November 1. Typically, we do three sessions a day, each session being about 1 hour-plus. And as always we really, REALLY need club volunteers to make this another successful year. If you can give a morning, a day, or even all four days, please let me know. The more club members we have, the smoother this class runs. Do not worry if you are not an expert tyer; if you can operate a vise and a bobbin, and can help tie a Wooly Worm, you are expert enough. And best of all, lunch is provided by B.H.S. So, what could be better than hanging out with a posse from the PFF, tying flies, AND enjoying a savory free lunch? Sounds like big fun to me; I'm already signed-up for all four days! f you are willing to help, please contact Paul Markson at 907-4744 or email oronopaul@yahoo.com. Thank you.
