GENERAL MEETING!
WHEN: Wednesday, September 14, 2016
WHERE: Lucky Lab Public House [Multnomah Village]
WHAT TIME: 6:30 p.m. [with 7:00 p.m. official program start]
WHAT to EXPECT: S
cott Richmond - "Ancient geology and biology of the Deschutes country"
Did you know that the Deschutes Country was once home to carnivores bigger than polar bears, large scimitar-toothed cats, and the pig from hell? That a major tributary

flows through Oregon's largest--and most unknown--volcano? That Maupin may be the hinge on which the entire Pacific Northwest swings? That the Deschutes was once a meandering river with no canyon—and may have flowed east to west, not south to north? That central Oregon used to be a low-lying swamp? Scott Richmond, author of Fishing Oregon's Deschutes River and River in the Sun, takes you on an exciting journey into your favorite river's incredible history from the origins of Oregon to the arrival of humans.!
WHAT to BRING: a good attitude and a handshake - introduce yourself!



CAMPOUTING!
WHEN: September 16-21, 2016
WHERE: Fall River - central Oregon [Fall River Campground]
WHAT TIME: whenever you can get there - feel free to come & go when your schedule allows.
WHAT to EXPECT: Trips are winding down [in fact this may be the last if we don't hear more on the State Project] so be sure to join Andy on the annual Fall River Campouting! Take on the challenge that is the Fall and see what may result - even if the fish aren't present SOMETHING always is - and that is exactly where the years of tales come from!
WHAT to BRING: camping stuff - some of it warm as the temps can take a dip to the nether regions; your fishing stuff; your best stories - and don't forget a side dish or dessert to share on Saturday at the potluck dinner!
