Massive flooding has temporarily shut down the West Fork Sportsmans Club in Avalanche, Wis. This is the host site for our Women’s Clinics, Project Green Teen outing and more. An important and vital place!
They are having a work day on Saturday, July 29 to clean things up and do repairs. Many hands will make light work … so head out if you can (carpooling is even better). If you do drive, stay on the gravel road as you arrive.
