After many years of loving trout and fly fishing for them, I have decided to join TU. I met Gary (Penns Creek Chapter secretary) on Honey Creek one day in early spring and we struck up a conversation. As we talked, he asked if I'd join TU and get involved. I said that I would and we exchanged contact info. He mailed me a a mail in invitation with the chapter code already written in for the Penns Creek Chapter. I filled it out the rest of the way and mailed the application and a check in. In a couple of weeks I received my initial packet with the membership card which stated I was in the Spring Creek Chapter. I thought this was an error. I went on the TU website and used the "find my local chapter" feature and typed in my address. Lo and behold, right where I live in Mifflin county, there is a tiny slice of land that belongs to the Spring Creek Chapter and it is totally surrounded by the Penns Creek Chapter of TU. Why is this? If my address was 5 miles down the road I'd be in the Penns Creek Chapter. No offense to Spring Creek, but if I'm going to get involved I want to try to help my local waters.
They meet at Bender Park from time to time, way closer than Bellefonte of State College. The TU Penns Creek Chapter president lives up the road in Mcveytown as I had met him years ago, too..
It just seems so stupid why there is a tiny portion of the Spring Creek Chapter right where I live.....
