The Spot's 2015 Expo - April 11 & 12

[Bernard]

Hello Everyone,

The menu for those curious, the Spot's event is located at this site: http://flyfishingexpo.net/ and spotlights and additional details at: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fishermens-Spot/198061763342?fref=ts. Highlights are numerous but I think they are bringing the idea of "something for everybody" to a new level. I have pasted-in some of the details from the Southwest Council's Feb. release below but I don't feel that it does it justice.
