As you may or may not know ?December 15th ?& 16th will be the final SC MLPA Fish & Game Commission meeting and it is imperative that we attend. Those of us who served as Southern California Regional Stakeholders tried to work within the process, we sacrificed time with our families, some where in jeopardy of losing their jobs and some were even on the verge of divorce. Our grass roots fishing, kayak, dive, spear and fishing industry did a great job attending the meetings and it's critical we attend this last meeting but it seems everyone has run out of steam. ?

I am asking you to please contact your fishing buddies and urge them to attend this meeting. If each industry member would send at least 4 employees, friends and even family members we might be able to get enough speaker cards for three minutes of time, if not each of our speakers will probably have .30 seconds to speak. ?

Please let your friends know if they do not want to speak we will need them to fill out a speaker card and cede their time. I will be there early to collect speaker cards from people that want to cede their time, so please have them find me. I will distribute the ceded time cards to ASA, PSO, UASC Attorneys, UASC and other industry and fishing friendly speakers. ?

Carpool, bring friends, neighbors, co workers, your employees etc...WE NEED YOUR SUPPORT.

The meeting will start at 9:00 am and will be held at:
Hotel Mar Monte
1111 E. Cabrillo Blvd.
Santa Barbara, Ca


Hope to see you there!
