In the most recent issue of the FFI Dispatch – the online newsletter of Fly Fishers International – Executive Director Patrick Berry encourages members to continue safe guidelines during these difficult times. He also states that if any members cannot renew membership because of financial hardship, to please let the FFI office know, so you can continue to be part of the FFI community.
Starting this week, FFI will begin using easy-to-use online tools to present real-time workshops, conversations and presentations. The first set of presentations will be about exciting projects and initiatives to launch FFI in new and energizing directions.
This week, Patrick will host a live Zoom webinar to give an overview of where we’re going as an organization, and provide folks with a chance to ask questions. Registration is required for any sessions.
