The Expo will be held Saturday, May 19th, 2007 at the Karen Gail Miller Convention Center, Salt Lake Community College, 9750 South 300 West, Sandy, Utah.
This all-day Expo will feature fly tying demos from some of the best fly tiers in Utah, casting clinics, fly tying and fly fishing workshops,
activities for kids, and raffles throughout the day. In the evening, we will conclude the Expo with a banquet and auction featuring author and fly fishing guide Landon Mayer

Expo activities will go from 8 a.m.-5 p.m., with the banquet starting at 7 p.m. General Admission to the public will be free.
The goals we have are threefold: 1) raise funds for future conservation projects for Utah's streams, rivers, and lakes, 2) celebrate fly tying and fly fishing in the state of Utah, and 3) have some fun.
The workshops, classes, and casting clinic schedules will be posted on the Stonefly Society website soon. Check the website often for updates and announcements. ([url "http://www.stoneflysociety.org/"]www.stoneflysociety.org<http://www.stoneflysociety.org/[/url]>)

We still need more help and particularly more fly tiers. If you would like to be a volunteer fly tyer to exhibit your fly tying skills, please contactCurtis Fry via email at [url "mailto:frito1@gmail.com"]frito1@gmail.com[/url].
