WHAT to BRING: 3-bucks [not the metalhead kind nor the antlered type - just plain ol' greenbacks.....oh, wait....well you get the idea - we're thinking Washington or even Eisenhower/Anthony/Sacagawea's]. It all goes to a good cause - the proceeds are 'returned' to the contributing FFACS members who in turn name a worthy cause to receive their portions. Last year TVTU donated $700 to the Salmon Watch program!
