Just because the clubhouse is unavailable to us now doesn’t mean that we’re not having meetings. The meetings are being held across 7th Street in the Recreation Park Community Center, which is just south of Federation (the street in front of the clubhouse and pond). The meeting is at 7:00 p.m.

The Long Beach Casting Club’s Beginning Fly Tying classes will restart on January 22, 2008, 7:00 PM, in the Patient Education Building (#8 on the VA Visitor Guide Map) at the Long Beach Veteran’s Hospital. Rex Jennings, Chief of Voluntary Services, has graciously offered a classroom at no charge, at the VA Hospital to continue our classes while our clubhouse is being restored.
