CWTU will be producing a 12 month calendar that will be handed out at the banquet in October. We are looking for members to provide high resolution images for the calendar.  The images should be related to trout, trout fishing, work days, water monitoring, bugs, Trout Fest, Harmon FF School, members fishing, and other images depicting what CWTU is all about. 

Members can send up to three images to John Gremmer at jgremmer@charter.net. The due date is August 15, 2019.  Bob Haase, Wayne Parmley, and John Gremmer will make the selections and complete the calendar.
