The newly formed TU Bluebacks received their charter from TU National last week and on Wednesday will host the first formal meeting of Trout Unlimited Chapter #196. The meeting is being held at Woodstock’s Pizza (1045 NW Kings Blvd, Corvallis, OR) from 7-9pm on Wednesday, April 17th. On the agenda are a recap of the Western Regional Meeting held April 5-6th in Spokane, as well as working through some Chapter business and forming committees to tackle fundraising, communications, and restoration projects. This is a great time to become involved with TU and get in on the ground floor of a chapter with lots of opportunities for meaningful coldwater conservation efforts in the Willamette Valley and mid-Coast.

I’m the current President of the Tualatin Valley TU chapter in Portland, and welcome the new Bluebacks chapter to the fold. We’d be pleased to have any of your members join us for our monthly (except July and August) chapter meetings at the Lucky Labrador Brewpub in Portland – second Wednesday (such as tonight!), 7 p.m. and social time at 6:30.
