great post Pat...check you e-mail when you have time....
Yes indeed, huge potential benefits to be explored. Better insurance rates, group plans, tackle purchases, passing along information on changes or interpretations to the angling regulations, group sessions on TP annual inspections. Possibilities are endless. We are in process of obtaining sample constitutions to help us build our own, then organize a meeting to ratify a new constitution.
One possible way to become more inclusive would be to look at area chapters to help expand the ability to connect local guides. At the moment we currently cover Port Alberni, Bamfield, Ucluelet and Tofino. We have contacted the Campbell River Guides Association, and will be trading information. Our plan is also to join the SFI to ensure we stay informed as well as connect on ways we can mutually support one another.
Bottom line, we are making progress and getting organized.
