GENERAL MEETING: On November 12th, 7:00 PM, we’ll meet at the Sheridan Community Center, 680 Lebo Blvd., in East Bremerton. Poggie Glen Jurges will give us an update on area boat launches. Glen is on the state committee for evaluating all state boat launch proposals.

BOARD MEETING: Our board will meet Tuesday, November 18th, 7:00 PM at the Sheridan Center. All Poggies are welcome.

DUES: Starting January 1st, 2009, membership dues will be $20.00 per year as approved by the membership.

Ads in the newsletter will be $60 and include membership.

By increasing our financial resources, we can continue and expand programs like Camp Easter Seal, Youth Summer Camp and Kids’ Fishing Parties.

CLASSES: The club has usually had three evening classes: rod building, salmon/halibut fishing and fly tying. Fly tying was dropped for lack of an instructor. We’re pleased that Poggie Bob Shermer has offered to teach the class this year. We don’t have materials or fly tying tools for the class yet, so if anyone has supplies to donate they would be appreciated. Vices are especially needed.

SINCLAIR DERBY: The club plans to be in the Marine Trade Association’s “Derby Series” again. On October 19th four Poggies attended the MTA planning session in Seattle. We heard from many others about their derby problems and plans. Those making the Seattle trip were Poggies Henry Altenburg, Norm Reinhardt, Howard Kauffman and Ray Frederick.

VENTURE CHARTERS: Until Area 10 closes, Poggie Randy Jones plans to offer $40 fishing trips on the Saturdays following our general meetings: one in November, December and January. See him at the meeting or call 895-5424. The Joker will leave from Kingston at 7:00 AM.

Randy is looking forward to another good year of halibut fishing out of John Wayne Marina near Sequim. His accumulated knowledge of fishing spots and tides gives him an advantage for halibut fishing in the Sequim area.

GROVER HATCHERY: The Chum are now being spawned at the hatchery. Volunteer if you can. Besides helping with spawning, we’ll clean fish for the local food banks. So far this year the club has delivered about 1500 pounds of salmon to local banks. According to CK Food Bank Director Poggie Hoyt Burroughs, salmon are much appreciated by their clients.

CCA (Coastal Conservation Alliance): At the October meeting plans for the annual banquet were discussed. The banquet is for fundraising and recruitment. The tentative date is April 4th at Kitsap Memorial Park. CCA is looking for auction items.

Our Kitsap CCA Chapter is now official. Because of the holidays, the November and December meetings have been changed to November 20th and December 18th.

CHRISTMAS PARTY: We have reserved the Silverdale Community Center again for our party. The arrangement worked out well last year and eliminated the crowding that we have had in previous years. The date has been set for December 9th.

NOTE: We are looking for volunteers to buy frozen turkeys for our raffle. The lowest price of the year is always just before Thanksgiving. We also need people to roast and carve turkeys for the party. Call Poggie President Henry Altenburg if you can do either.

FOR SALE: The club has a nice boat for sale. It is a 17 ½ ft. Glastron with a new 130 Volvo engine and 270 outdrive. It’s equipped with a hand and electric winch and is on a galvanized trailer. With full canvas it’s a steal at $1500. Call Poggie President Henry Altenburg 692-6085.
