On Saturday, January 14, 2023 the Mckenzie River Guides Association will have its annual members meeting. It will begin at 9:00 am at the Mckenzie Training Center Hall in Leaburg, Oregon.

This is the first time in two years that we have been able to meet in person in public. I hope to see you all there.

The 2022 First Aid and CPR training class will be held on November 17th from 2:00 pm to 4:00 pm at the McKenzie Fire & Rescue’s Leaburg Training Center.  The cost is $30.00 per person and will be collected on the training day. 

Thank you Chris Wright for putting this together.   

All MRGA members and guests are invited to attend the grand opening of the “Anglers Roost” flyfishing book collection at the Leaburg Library next to McKenzie Fire and Rescue in Leaburg Saturday, December 10, 2-4 PM.

As many MRGA members know, Tom Ripp, a long-time MRGA Associate Member, has, over his lifetime, accumulated a world-class, nearly 500-volume collection of flyfishing literature. He’s donated that collection to Leaburg Library, where we’ve prepared a special room, “Angler’s Roost”, to house the collection. The “roost,” adorned with a Lynda Edwards mural, is a quiet place to browse, read and check out selected volumes as Tom wishes (with special accountability). Tom will give an overview of the collection at 2:00 PM in the MF&R Community Room—refreshments will follow there and at the library, where attendees can view the collection.
