{Tidal Potomac Fly Rodders} Passing the Baton

With one shot of sadness mixed with one can of joy, I am announcing that Trent Jones and I are leaving the board of TPFR. Almost exactly four years ago Dan Davala tapped me to fill his Gravelly-stained wading boots, it's been a hell of a ride and a lot of fun.

As some of you know, the First Lady and I are expecting a child in less than two months, and I am wanting make more time for family and put the club in hands that can provide more attention.

Trent and I have been around since 2009, attending nearly every TPFR event from meetings at the Quincy Street library, dimly-lit Beer Ties at Ri Ra, Casting Churches at Fletcher's, Rainsboro Fly Fishing and Wine Festivals, and finally Beer Ties at Whitlows. Over the years, I've met some of my best friends through the group.

We are handing off the group to some very capable and dedicated hands. Art Noglak (of the infamous Art's Legal Corner) and Rob Snowhite (snakehead punter, Home Depot fly tyer, podcaster, and fly fishing consultant extraordinaire) to serve as President and Vice President, respectively. They will be reaching out to you to fill some vacant positions in the near future.

Trent and I aren't going anywhere. You'll find me at the diaper changing station at Whitlows and Trent laughing at the bathroom door. We look forward to spending another 10 or 30 years with the TPFR crew!

Dalton and Trent
