Bonefish and Tarpon
12:00 PM * 1:30 PM
Fresh back from a successful May trip to Belize, Leland Miyawaki, will share a week of sun, bonefish, tarpon, Belizean hospitality and more rum punch than any of us will admit to.
Sheridan Lake, BC
2:00 PM * 3:30 PM
Lake Sheridan, located in Central B.C., offers some of the most frustrating, focused, intense, and incredible fun you can have throwing flies for monster Rainbows. 4 to 5 pounds are fairly common. 8 pounds gets some attention. 9 and up people want to talk with you. Knowing the difference between Red and Maroon floss, or Light Tan and Pale Yellow yarn can mean the difference between a sore arm from fighting fish all day, and frustration. Throwing huge Traveling Sedge dry fly patterns at dusk can leave you shaking. If you want to know more, Greg Mine will be here to point you in the right direction.
North Cascades Institute
4:00 PM * 5:30 PM
Do you and your children want to follow a swallowtail through a mountain meadow? Track a bobcat through the woods? Paint a watercolor? Listen for owls? Paddle a canoe? Share a story? Identify wildflowers? Megan McGinty of the North Cascades Institute will be here to tell you all about this fabulous camp right here in our backyard.
Sunday, Oct. 7
