Ron DeMeyer stated the Brien and he would finalize our outing to the Blanco River and would schedule the outing sometime in May.
Ron gave a short review of the fish feeding project to date. Pat McQuinn said that the fish feeding group would meet on April 27th to set the schedule for May and possibly June.
Dan reminded the members that we will have the board election in May.
Brien brought up that FFI requires us to review our by-laws and ensure that we follow the template they provide to ensure our by-laws include required sections. There was no time limit given. Dan will do the review and report the results.
Logo hats were discussed. Ron said that he had contacted “welogoanything” and they said that our logo had too many colors for an embroidery but they could do a patch or they could simplify our logo with fewer colors and possibly do the embroidery. They will modify our logo and send to Ron for review.
Patrick Ireland, District Supervisor, Inland Fisheries, TPWD was our speaker. Patrick explained the breadth of the role they play in local fisheries.
Dan adjourned the meeting at 7:45 pm.
