Outings for 2021
Next outing: September 18- 20
I have reserved the usual two cabins at Tom’s Place for the 19th. and 20th. of September. That is a Sunday and Monday night. The weekend nights were booked.I’m asking that any members interested in the trip send $80 to treasurer Dana Kahler to pay for the rooms. If at least 9 members sign up, we’re good to go. If more than that, the club will make a few bucks.Please register right away if you plan to come. I need a count. If more than 12, I’ll have to arrange for extra rooms and/or just tell the later sign ups that they’re on the waiting list.Deadline for reservations and payment of $80 is August 27. If we don’t have enough members signed up by then, the trip will be cancelled and money returned to the disappointed members.

Past year’s outings
The outing to First Dinkey Lake was a success. Luckily for us, the smoke from wildfires had not yet polluted the air, the weather cooperated, and fish were caught in a beautiful High Sierra setting. Here are a few pictures:
