Rare Reel Show at the American Museum of Fly Fishing!

Post by john elder »

I just received this contact from Samantha Pitcher at the AMFF about a show they will have in September which will feature rare reels from their collection:

"We are hosting a small member event here at the Museum entitled Rare Reel Rendezvous. It will take place on Saturday, September 12 from 3PM – 6PM. We will be featuring reels from the Museum’s collection and wanted to extend an invitation to your local members. Please let me know if this is something you would be interested in pursuing.
Best wishes,

Samantha Pitcher
Membership & Event Coordinator
American Museum of Fly Fishing
4104 Main St
PO Box 42
Manchester, VT 05254
802-362-3300 x204

If you are in striking range and would like to attend the event (wish I was!), give Sam a call so they will be able to establish a body count for the event.

John--

As you know, the Museum is a very cool place.

If you cannot attend, I hope they let you send an ORCA representative with a camera. I would like to see which reels they consider to be the "rarest" in their incredible collection.

Yoshi and Sam contacted me about this event and asked if I'd bring along a few reels for show and tell. I'll be happy to take a few pics of the reels they bring out from the museum collection. Hope to see other ORCA members there.

The Museum posted information about the event on their website:
Rare Reel Rendezvous

ORCA members Jim Hardman, Michael Hackney and I will be there - any other ORCA members planning on making the trip?
