Friday evening  starting at 6:00 David Haggard will cook up a mess of lake-caught fish along with French fries and other fixins.  Club members are asked to bring soft drinks, ice, deserts, eating ware, etc to complete the dinner.  Saturday morning we will meet up with David for the first boat trip at 8 am Saturday morning from the visitor's center. This will last around 3 hours. We'll break for lunch then meet up again at 6 pm for our second boat trip which will also last around 3 hours. Each boat trip will cost $20 per person. Everyone has the option to go on both trips or just one. Depending on how many people are going will determine if we have one or two pontoon boats.

Sunday morning we will meet up again with David Haggard at the Visitor's Center to photograph some of the wildlife residing at the Visitor's Center
