Good Day,

 

Our local paper did a story on our club and the three tiers who did well in the FFF World Championship. A fun little article I thought might be nice to share. For those of you around Grand Rapids, Michigan, it is in todays (September 1st) outdoors section of the Grand Rapids Press.

all three gained fame as world champion flytiers

 

At a boy Chris! I did not realize that the three of you took 39 of 96 medals despite having 156 competitors, that is awesome work!

Very nice. I didn't realize, either, how well your group did.

 

Truly impressive.

Hey redwings, all three of us should be at the Mason, Michigan show. Will you be attending this year?

Absolutely! We have been talking about trying to get the FTF/TFF/RBF table (Steve), me, and you guys all in a row so we can BS a bit more this year instead of me coming over for 30 seconds and then having to go back to the table.
