Attend Monthly Meeting

Meetings are the second Tuesday of every month, at Schwoegler’s Bowling Alley, 444 Grand Canyon Dr., Madison, WI 53719. We meet in Schwoegler’s community room on the southern end of the building. The room is just off the southernmost entryway near the pro shop.

Typical Chapter Meeting Schedule

Come for dinner from 5:30-7, general pub style menu and a good opportunity to shoot the breeze and meet some people.

Chapter announcements/business follow from 7-7:30pm

Our speaker/presentation is from 7:30-8:30.

The range of presentation topics is wide and we have had some real notables, from local fishing, to the environment, to fly tying, to travelogues of exotic (and sometimes not-so-exotic) trips. The latest newsletter has details on the upcoming meeting topic.

A 50/50 raffle offers an opportunity to win a prize and also helps cover the room rental costs. If you are a new member attending your first meeting, you will be given free raffle tickets. We’d love to see you there!

Special Months

March has traditionally been our Meicher Madness Auction, where you can bid on some terrific gear, artwork, materials and an amazing array of fish-catching flies tied by local masters. You can also make some room for new stuff by bringing along items you aren’t using anymore that somebody else might bid on! It’s a ton of fun and all proceeds help power the good work SWTU does.

In the summer, we may replace a typical meeting with a picnic or other event. And we may take a month off in the summer as so many are busy traveling and fishing. Keep an eye on the newsletter to know the latest.
