On behalf of "Cool Water" (Travis) and "Salmonitis" (A.J.) I want to announce that the official fishlakewinni.com "GATHERING" will take place on Sunday, March 25, 2007 from 11AM-6PM. It will be at the American Legion Hall on Parade Road in Laconia (across from the fire station). Parade Road runs past Opeechee Park where the big carved totem pole is and goes to Meredith. The Legion Hall is only about a 1/4 mile out of downtown Laconia. "Grey Ghost" will be supplying directions in the future along with the meeting agenda.
Also in the future we will be offering the opportunity to sign up for the catered luncheon to be served. Only those that sign up will be eligible to get tickets at the registration for the meal.
More about the "Gathering" will be posted later. Remember, all (that includes spouses) are welcome. We may reach 150 attendees this year.

I have a question about this gathering if you don't mind.It sounds like you have speakers and stuff,does AJ have tackle for sell there or any one else?Or is this a just a shoot the S*** and meet new people time?I have never been but I'm looking forward to it If there is any thing that I can do to help Please let me know.Thanks in advance.
Yes there will be vendors there with fishing tackle for sale.There will be time allocated for vendor presentations.
The main purpose of the Gathering is to meet others-put a face to the name, make a new friend.
The RFP's (Retired Fishing Partners) will also have a signup list for those who are retired and want someone to fish with.
The invited speakers will enlighten us and maybe even entertain us. More on this later when it's confirmed.
