Meeting Program for Tuesday May 22, 2012: Fly Casting Workshop This month's meeting program will be a fly casting workshop led by Mike Sonderman. As many of you know a number of our members are excellent casters. Several of them will be present to help those who wish to work on their casting. Mike will coordinate the workshop outside the NRD building immediately after our board meeting which starts at 7 pm and will end at around 7:30.. (Members are always welcome at board meetings.) Bring your flyrod, and give it a workout on the lawn at Chalco Hills. We should have a few extras for those who don't yet own a rod and want to try fly casting. Membership meeting programs are normally held at 7:30 in the lower conference room of the Papio-Missouri River NRD Building in Chalco Hills Recreation Area in Omaha (more detailed directions are below). The program will be preceded by a short board meeting beginning at 7:00 pm to which members are invited. Please join us for another interesting and productive evening. Upcoming Events
Our MissionThe Nebraska Chapter of TU was established in the mid-1990’s as a part of the fight to preserve the Verdigre Creek, the only coldwater stream in Eastern Nebraska. Since then we have grown to several hundred members and have become quite active as evidenced by our many projects. Our mission is to support the work of Trout Unlimited on a local basis.
AboutFor more than 40 years, TU has played the leading role in protecting one of America’s last great national treasures: our nation’s trout and salmon fisheries. By combining “on the ground” restoration projects, a cutting-edge scientific research and effective advocacy on behalf of our coldwater fisheries, TU has been an effective steward for trout and salmon nationwide. Through over 450 chapters nationwide, TU organizes grassroots stream restoration projects, conservation programs and youth education events. TU’s national fundraising initiatives such as the Coldwater Conservation Fund and the Embrace-A-Stream program provide hundreds of thousands of dollars annually for groundbreaking scientific research and local in-stream restoration projects across the country. TU also works at the state and federal level, providing a voice for fish and coldwater resources, strengthening existing protections and challenging new threats to trout and salmon.
