General Chapter Meeting Information

A featured part of almost every month's membership meeting is the guest speaker program.  The Board of Directors spends a lot of time planning and arranging for the featured speakers. We begin by designing a general theme for each month's program and then follow up by identifying and booking potential speakers.

When Montgomery County Recreation must close or cancel programs due to inclement weather or other circumstances related to participant and staff safety the first notification is made through Montgomery County’s emergency notification system, Alert Montgomery. Alert Montgomery provides accurate, immediate emergency notifications from Montgomery County to your cell, work or home phone, via text, email or voice message.

What I did on My Summer Vacation

Travel/Fishing Photos by PPTU Members

September 18, 2019 @ 7:00PM

Summer has baked us enough! It’s time to cool off and relax among your fishing friends. Many of us vacationed this summer to exciting locations. As we get together for the first time in several months, the time has arrived for us to channel our inner child and show our friends and family of PPTU members what we've been up to all summer. Tall tales and photos will vary from close to home trips to wonders outside the state lines. Several members have great trip information to share with others in search of relaxation, sightseeing, and the occasional trophy fish.

Come on by and put your feet up and relax and imagine yourself in the waders of your fellow TU members. Grab some popcorn and a cool drink, ask questions or just relive some of the fascinating places our members will be sharing Wednesday night.

If you wish to share any of your adventures, please send me your summer pics with location info: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
