WBIR was very gracious this past Friday and gave us a few minutes to get the word out about TROUTFEST 2015 on Live at Five. Here is a link to that interview with Mike Bryant, our chairman and president of the Little River chapter. (note- they had the date wrong on the print copy shown but Mike corrected on air!)

Don’t miss out on this great evening full of good times, great food and great opportunities to pick up some fantastic auction items. All while supporting our great natural treasure – The Great Smoky Mountain National Park and youth conservation education. Our donations are more important than ever in protecting and restoring the Park as well as educating and inspiring the next generation of conservation leaders.
