We have over 100 FFF members in our club and nobody got asked to tie. In fact no contact was made to our club to see if anybody was interested in tying nor has there ever been any contact of that sort. Last year the Junior Tyer of the Year was not invited. When you work off the same list every year, some folks die, some move away and some just stop showing up. It doesn't take a wizard to figure that you eventually have a sparse room. 2 years ago, when our club put on the Conclave, I convinced Toby to come back after he swore he would never tie again. I called Bear and asked him to please invite Toby and he told me to have him send in 6 flies for review and he'd get back to him. When I started coming to Sowbug, I barely knew how to tie. You told me I'd be just fine and I was. I haven't missed my session since. Since then we've been able to add 3 more folks from here to the roster. I could fix it but that ain't gonna happen.

See you all back at the Sowbug.

Saw alot of tying buddies it was good to see them. Good conclave but I feel they were short on tyers but the ones who tied did a good job.. I enjoyed the conclave. We had 8 Tri-Lakes members show up, We need to do better next time.It was good to see you up and going, keep well. Peggy and Mark sure were going strong as usual. I got to visit with a few other list members also.

Most will be back for Sowbug. Had a nice visit with several list members. Jerry the visit with you was no more than a hand shake.. It seems there is not enough time to really visit.
