About "Music City Fly Girls"
Our first meeting was held on October 18th, 2007 and we had 15 women in attendance. What
a great group! By the end of the meeting, we all knew that this would be a hit! Lots of laughs and good energy made the time
fly and before we knew it, we had run an hour longer than expected.
We had a diverse group of women ranging from homemakers,
nurses, veterinarians, engineers, song writers, psychologists, pilots, landscapers accountants, buyers, editors, graphic artists,
whew.... what a crew.
During the meeting we agreed on a mission. We wanted a venue that would be something everyone looks
forward to each month. Refreshments would be provided at each meeting with members volunteering to bring a covered dish and
a bottle of "something" on a rotating basis. We all love to eat!
We also discussed having a variety of meetings
covering basic casting, entomology, a discussion on gear, flies, places to fish in Tennessee and other places around the country.
We are looking to have guest speakers, both for instruction and guided trip opportunities. Future events including a Christmas
party, fund raisers for potential charities, and a group trip to Salt Lake City were discussed, and everyone was excited about
the ideas.
We agreed to a dues structure of $60/year. The funds will go towards supplementing group outings. Guests are
free on their first visit but will be asked to "pony up" after that.
We are expecting this to be an
exciting time as we build our group and make plans for future meetings and outings. Come and join us and witness the energy
first hand!
