Take our 2016 Women's Initiative Survey for TU!
In order to better serve the women members, the national committee has created a Women's Initiative Survey. Periodically we survey our supporters to improve our understanding of the needs and opinions of our members. It's been 7 years since TU's last major survey on the topic of women in TU. The Women's Initiative of TU is now 5 years old and completing this survey will help us to refine and develop programs central to our mission of conserving cold clean water for trout and salmon. It should take no more than 30 minutes to complete. Thank you for your time. 
 
If you wish to support the women's initiative with a donation, please contact Beverly Smith, VP of Volunteer Operations at Trout Unlimited (Bsmith@tu.org). 
 
 
Spotlight - We need your help! 
This newsletter is for you, about you, and on your love of fishing.  Consequently, we are looking to spotlight articles by PA women guides, fly tyers or fishing successes in our newsletter and social media.  If you have anything interesting to share fellow, female anglers, PLEASE let us know.  We would love to hear from you!  Contact us!
 
Be sure to register by Sept. 5 for PATU Annual Meeting on Sept. 10  
This year, PA Council's Annual Membership Meeting will be held on Saturday, September 10 at Lambert Hall in Bellefonte. This facility has ample capacity to accommodate several hundred people, so we are looking forward to a record attendance for this annual fall event.

This event promises to offer a variety of activities and learning opportunities for chapter officers and members alike. There will be trainings on a variety of subjects, including youth clearance procedures, stream restoration techniques, and tips for working with National TU's Project Finder tools.

On the lighter side of things, there will be a fly casting competition, fly swap, raffle prizes and, of course, George Kutskel's much-anticipated annual pig roast.  Annual awards will be presented to deserving  chapters and individuals, and election of Council officers will also take place.

  Click here to download an agenda, registration form, directions and other details pertaining to the meeting. Any questions, please contact Tali MacArthur at   c-tmacarth@pa.gov or 814-359-5233.
