Bill----Per our brief conversation today, below I’ve forward the info needed to sign-up volunteers for an important project we’re doing this coming Sunday, October 18th. We’ll need bodies and it will entail some raking, shoveling and moving/placing boulders and/or logs in different locations. The project is to block-off/close, unauthorized, single-track hill climbs that have been disturbing riparian areas of the Little Truckee River below Stampede Dam.



I know your board has frequent mention of the LT. I feel that those who cast their flies there should also be pro-active relative to preserving this fine fishery.



If you wish you can call me or David Lass if you require further details.

Subject: Sign up for Truckee River Day! October 18th!



Hello everyone,



Fall is a good time to take some time off from a busy summer and give back to your local watershed. The Truckee River Watershed Council is hosting their 14th Annual Truckee River Day on the 18th of October this year. This year, the Tahoe Truckee Fly Fishers have their own project to be a part of; the Little Truckee River Wildlife Habitat Improvement Project. I'm counting on you all to sign up and show up in great numbers to show the community we not only recreate throughout the Truckee River Watershed, but we also care and are willing to donate the blood, sweat and tears to restore and protect it.



Fill out the attached form, or more conveniently, go to the Truckee River Day website and follow the steps listed below. Hope to see you out there:

That’s it, you’re signed up!

I am pretty sure they were doing work out there this last Sunday, or at least I hope so. I heard atv's and motorcycles in the meadow section.

I would definitely help out, but of course I work on the weekends.

Mr Fochetti----

Thanks for your interest in this week-end's LT project.

Locally, the Truckee River Watershed Council, the FFing group (Tahoe-Truckee Fly Fishers) and Truckee's new TU Chapter have and will do on-going and one-time projects during mid-week. We can always use bodies.

I can give you and others info about things being done or planned. Or info on getting advance notice and/or...since you live in Reno...short notice e-mail/call lists when volunteers are needed. Contact me off-line if you wish.
