W
hat were you doing on April 12th? To jog everyone’s memory -- that was the date of our annual club clean-up day. If you sense a note of disappointment, you are correct. We only had a total of 3 members show up; actually, one if you don’t count myself and Charlotte. Needless to say we only accomplished a couple of our clean-up goals.Everyone wants a club that looks good and that maintains our image in the community, especially during these times when the Port District is analyzing our presence.
In order that we have a club in the future, I can only reiterate that "We MUST have participation from ALL Members". Participation is the driving force of OUR club and this includes all events as well as the everyday business.
Get involved – insure our success in the future.

April 27th - Open House and Day at the Docks
Thanks to Charles Been, Bob James, and Art Ponce for helping to man our booth at the Day at the Docks festival. We met several new potential members. Also, thanks to Rawhide Ranch for donating the canopy for our use and to our supporters at the Day at the Docks for their donation of booth space.
Many people stopped by our Open House to see what we’re all about and enjoy a free hotdog. The children had a chance to participate in a free fishing contest from our docks. This was organized and run by Bob Woodard Jr., Bill LeMaster and Rochelle Seeds. Many thanks for their help! Several bass, perch, and sharks were caught. Thanks to Everingham Brothers Bait Company for the donation of the bait and to Ed Waldman for picking it up the bait and use his bait tank.

The more you fish
the more you start seeing these things the way a farmer does:
It doesn’t have to be great,
just please don’t let it be awful.
