This is a gung-ho chapter - they do a good deal of stream improvement work. I'll be there Saturday, rain or shine. Anyone else joining me?

Whoever didn't make it to this pig roast really missed out on a very fun and informative event. It was well organized and I sure hope they do this again. The venue couldn't be beat, provided by the gracious and generous landowners the Longacres. (I think they also own the great old-timey road cafe on Rte100 at Bally). Spending the day with Gurus George Daniels, Henry Ramsay and Dave Rothrock in a less frenetic setting than Fly Shows (which I do love) was a treat. I loved the swallows flying after Mayfly spinners (Baetis or Paraleps). Perkiomen Valley TU is a Chapter rock star for the significant stream restoration projects that they do.

Les, I am so glad you could make it. The Board would like to thank everyone who came out, and supported our chapter. It was a fun day except for the wind. Not the best for Henry and Dave, but it all worked out.
