We apologize for the change, but we don’t think many (if any) people will want to show up at the January TU meeting in the middle of the Ducks National Championship game.
The general meeting will be held at Izzy’s Pizza, 1930 Mohawk Boulevard in Springfield. at 7:00pm.
We also decided that since some people have had trouble making the board meeting at 6:00, we would move the board meeting to after the general meeting. So we’ll convene the board meeting around 15 minutes after the general meeting ends. As always, TU members are all welcome to attend the board meeting.
So to review:
Again, we apologize for switching things around on you. Our goal is to settle on a location and meeting day and stick to it. We’ll make some time to hear from you at this meeting and in future meetings, so if you have any questions, suggestions, comments or you just like to hear yourself talk, come out and speak up.
The Redsides Holiday party (originally scheduled at the Pour House) will be at Falling Sky Brewing House at 1334 Oak Alley, Eugene, on Monday, Dec 8th from 6:00 – 8:00pm.
We’ll have hors d’oeuvres available. The Pour House has excellent deli food and boutique beer and cider.
We’ve come a long way since our reorganization this spring. Help us celebrate at the Pour House. We’ll have hors d’oeuvres available. The Pour House has excellent deli food and boutique beer and cider.
Hope to see you there!
The Oregon Chapter of the American Fisheries Society is holding a symposium on hatchery vs. wild salmon.
From the site:
“One of the most controversial and hot topics in fisheries biology today is the interaction between hatchery and wild salmon and steelhead. To address and better understand these interactions, fisheries managers and researchers are reevaluating how hatchery programs are managed and if these programs may be contributing to the decline in wild populations. However, hatcheries across the Pacific Northwest continue to play a vital role in producing fish that support recreational, commercial, and tribal harvest and are used to mitigate anthropogenic impacts to fish populations.”

The local Eugene fly fishing community will offer advice and demonstrations to beginners and experienced fishers alike. A collaboration between the McKenzie Flyfishers, Cascade Family Flyfishers, Damsel Flies and the city of Eugene, the festival features casting lessons, demos of fly-tying and a handful of booths with flyfishers ready to share their knowledge of the river and its fish.
The Spring Fly Fishing Festival is open to all ages and is 9am-4pm Saturday, June 21, at the Campbell Community Center, 155 High St.
Drop by our booth and say hello!
Western Environmental Law Center and Save Our Wild Salmon with sponsorship from Mountain Rose Herbs is hosting a screening of the film ‘Damnation’ here in Eugene. It will be Thursday, June 19 at Bijou Art Cinema (492 East 13th) at 7:00pm. I have been looking froward to seeing this film, as I’m sure many of our members also have. If you’re not familiar, it’s a film about the growing need and push for dam removal to restore wild fish runs and the ecosystems affected. View the trailer here: http://damnationfilm.com.
The following is a letter from Arlen Thomason:
Esteemed citizen scientists,
I’m pleased to let you know that the long-rumored Trout Study wrap-up meeting is finally about to happen, surmounting a raft of logistical issues that led to the delay. The meeting will take place on Tuesday, June 10, 6-7 pm at Springfield City Hall (225 5th St.) in the Council Meeting Room near the Library. (more…)
