Help out Project Green Teen

Giving some great kids a special taste of the outdoors
Each year, SWTU is proud to partner with the Project Green Teen program at Madison’s Shabazz High School to introduce them to our sport and a special slice of the great outdoors. Mark your calendar for these events and consider spending some time at your vice this winter spinning up some flies for these kids.

Fly tying sessions: Wednesday, February 19, from 9 to 11:35, and Thursday, February 20, from 12:30 to 3:15 at Shabazz High School in the Cafeteria.

Casting sessions: Tuesday, April 14, from 12:30 to 3:15, and Tuesday, April 21, from 12:30 to 3:15 at Shabazz High School in the Cafeteria.

Avalanche Youth Fly Fishing Mentor Trip: May 8-16, Fishing May 10th – 14th from 3:30 pm- 6:30pm on.  We need 15 guides EACH day.  PGT serves dinner to the guides each day. (The Westfork Campground will be open and appreciates your business!  The Portage Shelter is already reserved for our group).

To mentor a student any or all of the days please contact Dave Fowler who is organizing the guides to have 15 each day. (We have 2 teachers who would also like to learn.)

FLY DONATIONS, please give your donations to Dave Fowler dkfowler82@gmail.com  (608) 513-0681.  Your expertise in offering both the teenagers and the women’s clinics a set of flies (they all get a fly box too!) is greatly appreciated.
