All who enjoy the sport of trout fishing are invited to please join NGTO for the annual get-together known as the Fall Fling. This event has been going on since about 1999. It is a great place for folks on the message board to finally put faces with names, a place for new folks to meet like-minded trout bums, and a place for old friends to get together and go over the past year's accomplishments and talk about the next year's adventures.
If any members would like to add to the fling by offering donations for raffles, door prizes or even presenting demonstrations pertaining to trout fishing, please contact one of the BOD members...or just bring things with you. It's a very informal event.
The Fall Fling has become the yearly fundraising event for NGTO. Over the years advertisers have been interested in marketing on NGTO. In exchange for exposure on the NGTO message board, funds and merchandise were turned into a win/win situation, as that merchandise is offered to the members at the flings in the form of raffles and auctions. Primarily from these funds we have been able to cover NGTO's expenses and put back extra money into the support of the trout fishing community of Georgia.
Hope to see you there!!
