2009 Outings:
Last Outing: Great outing on the Methow
It was a fun weekend had by all. I was able to enjoy some quality time on the river with my wife and two fellow members Bruce and Andy. I heard the all you can eat barbecue at the Chelan winery is not to be missed.
John had some great tips and advice this allowed me to catch my first Steelhead.
Working Like Dogs: OFFC's newest member helps the Kick-off for Conservation

Lazarus is Joe and Renee's newest family addition.
As far as we know there are no prerequisites for our members to be able to swim, but our newest member, Lazarus, was prepared to take the plunge. He helped in the Club's first conservation project on the last outing floating, fishing and picking up litter on the Snohomish River. This initiative is sure to pick up speed once we realize there is more to do than just sleep in the raft.
A few beautiful fish were caught on the last outing to The Naches River.
Thanks to Brian and John for the update and pictures.
