Ok all, lets get those kids signed up. I’ve got two of my kids signed up now. If you have a niece, nephew, daughter, son, grandchild, or a neighbor kid they all qualify. If they have ever seen you tie a fly, you know that they want to tie one too.
This is your excuse to go ahead and tie a few flies with your kids. I know that my kids ask to tie flies more often than we are able to do it.
Kids love it.
We have four swappers, need two more to fill out the swap, this is the way to pass on our hobby to the next generation.

BUMP. I know that there are two more people with there kids or grand kids sitting there looking for something to do, why not start them fly tying, lots of fun, no pressure, we need two more people to fill the swap.

Bump, still two spots open, the kids who did this last year had a great time. Perhaps a neighbor kid who wants to learn. look around church, become a mentor today.

When my grandchilden saw this swap, they got all excited; they thought they could swap me for another grandparent.
