Pond. Any one caught fishing at the Fly Fishing Pond using un authorized bait / tackle will
have their membership revoked. If in doubt , ask.
Barb-less Hooks must be used in the Fly Fishing Pond ( Catch and Release )
Ice fishing is at your own risk. Please be careful.

The Board of Directors would like to thank club member

Right-to-Carry Takes Effect In National Parks
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Colorado State University Board of Governors voted unanimously Tuesday to place
students at both of its campuses in harm’s way with a sweeping weapons ban law-
abiding citizens will obey and criminals will ignore. Larimer County Sheriff James
Alderden, outraged by the ban, told The Gazette’s opinion department he will undermine
it in the interest of student safety. CSU-Fort Collins Police Chief Wendy Rich-Goldsmith,
a relative newcomer to the campus, supports the ban. “I have told the CSU police chief I
will not support this in any way,” Sheriff Alderden told The Gazette. “If anyone with one
of my permits gets arrested for concealed carry at CSU, I will refuse to book that
person into my jail. Furthermore, I will show up at court and testify on that person’s
behalf, and I will do whatever I can to discourage a conviction. I will not be a party to
this very poor decision.”
