CleanUp2014-2 1.6 MB - Au Sable Big Water Preservation
ANGLERS OF THE AU SABLE WILL ABSORB THE AU SABLE BIG WATER PRESERVATION ASSOCIATION AT THE END OF THIS YEAR This spring the ASBWPA Board of Directors voted to dissolve the organization effective December 31, 2014. At that point Anglers of the Au Sable (AOTA) will purchase all assets of the ASBWPA. Given the enormous demands of protecting and preserving the Big Water of the Au Sable we felt that joining AOTA was the right move. AOTA is the preeminent conservation organization in the state. Their new committee-based format allows the ASBWPA to continue to function as a unit. The Lower Au Sable Committee will now enact our mission. Many of us will work in that group going forward. We urge all our members who are not already affiliates of AOTA to join them. One can learn more about AOTA and membership at www.ausableanglers. org or P.O. Box 200, Grayling, MI 49738. Through this year everyone will receive a complementary membership including copies of The RIVERWATCH. WE ARE GOING OUT WITH A PARTY!!! September 6th (The Organization Finale!) – Comins Flats in Mio. Fall Cleanup: Meet by the Comins Flats ramp at 8 a.m. (boats)/9 a.m. (walkers), coffee & donuts, Bar-B-Q afterwards and prize drawing for fly rods, reels, streamer selections, dry fly selections, warm-water fly selections and more – some donated by Gates Au Sable Lodge (www.gateslodge.com) Bring waders if you can for these activities. We would like 12 boats for the cleanup (special thank you bag for boat volunteers). A.S.B.W.P.A P.O.
