 MEETING SCHEDULE

 

   Doc Fritchey TU holds its membership meetings on the fourth Tuesday of each month, except for one month during the spring (Annual Banquet), some summer months, and December (no meeting).

   The board meeting is open to the general membership, and starts at 6:30 PM.  Members who would like to present something to the board are asked to contact the chapter president before the meeting to schedule time on the agenda.  The featured presentation of the month follows the board and membership meeting.

    GUESTS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME AT OUR CHAPTER MEETINGS!


Next Monthly Chapter Meeting - Tuesday, May 27

   Our board meeting starts at 6:30 PM, followed by the membership meeting and featured program for the evening.  All are invited to attend the board meeting, and those who choose to come earlier can dine at our new meeting location, Rookie's Bar & Grill in Harrisburg (see directions below).
  
   Our May program will feature two presentations by Dave Miko of the PA Fish & Boat Commission; "The Status of Smallmouth Bass in the Susquehanna" and "Trout Residency in Pennsylvania."  Dave was previously the South Central Area Fisheries Biologist until his recent promotion to Chief of PFBC's Bureau of Fisheries.

   This will be our last indoor meeting until September, so we're hoping for an extra large turnout for these very informative presentations.  We hope to see you there!
