Welcome to Pine River Area Trout Unlimited - #524
Welcome to the Pine River Area Chapter web-site. We thank you for taking your time to review what we have to say and what we are all about. Our board wanted to provide a web-site as a communication piece to both Chapter members and persons wanting to know more about Trout Unlimited in Northern Michigan.
About Pine River TU
We are a grass roots group of dedicated angler/conservationists in the Cadillac Michigan area whose purposes are:
-
To conserve, protect and restore our local cold water streams and fisheries and their watersheds.
-
To study, understand and enhance our wild cold water resources.
-
To pass on our love and knowledge for the sport to the next generation of anglers in our area. This is done by person-to-person interactions, by group participation at meetings and activities and with partnerships with other local organizations.
We hope you take the time to check out our history, our projects and fund raising efforts. We also want you to contact us. Let us know what you think about our site. Inform us of important conservation issues in your neighborhood. Give us ideas about projects. As importantly, we want you to get involved with our Chapter. Give us a call, attend one of our meetings and let us know if you want to get involved.
