Great News! The Great Waters Expo will be held in Blaine Minnesota--just on the NE edge of Minneapolis this April 1-3. I will be speaking at the event.

From the website:
Tom Helgeson’s Great Waters Fly Fishing Expo will continue this year on April 1, 2 and 3 at a wonderful new location — The National Sports Center in Blaine.
As you may have heard, Great Waters founder Tom Helgeson died in November after a brief battle with cancer. His absence left a huge hole in the Midwest fly fishing community.
Thanks to the help and encouragement of his countless friends, we are thrilled to announce that we are continuing Tom Helgeson’s Great Waters Fly Fishing Expo in the Twin Cities.
We have been overwhelmed and heartened by the enthusiasm and support to continue the expo and build on his legacy.

A word about Midwest Fly Fishing magazine. When Tom got sick, he had to devote all his attention to the grueling treatment regimen. Tom’s family is restarting the magazine and plans to continue it long into the future. We appreciate your patience and expect to have an issue out before the expo. If you have a story idea, want to place an ad or for more information, contact mwfly@mwfly.com
Remember, the Great Waters Fly Fishing Expo will be April 1, 2, 3 at the National Sports Center in Blaine. We look forward to seeing you there.
This is an impressive move on the part of Tom’s family and friends, continuing his important efforts as well as creating a legacy foundation. To me, both are worthy of support and celebration.
I know I’ll be there!
