SUMMARY:October 2025 Club Dinner Meeting Featuring Greg Shimek
DESCRIPTION:Join us for our October 2025 monthly club meeting featuring Greg Shimek in Seattle’s old Pioneer Square at The Hall at Occidental! (see note below) \n\nGreg is a member of the Coastal Cutthroat Commission and Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group. \nIn addition Greg’s a retired telecommunications executive and fly fishing enthusiast. He was born and raised in Shelton\, and grew up on Hood Canal\, building a passion for clean water\, healthy fish and good habitat. Along with his service with the Hood Canal Salmon Enhancement Group\, he has taken an interest in Washington’s coastal cutthroat populations\, working with WDFW on research in Puget Sound. \nGreg is a past president of Puget Sound Fly Fishers and is currently the group’s conservation chair. In 2019\, he received the prestigious Bill Mackay Conservation Award from the Washington State Council of Fly Fishers International. \n— \nA note from our Club President: \nAnd now\, for something completely different! \nWe are pleased to announce that our venue for our October 21stmeeting will be The Hall at Occidental\, 589 Occidental Avenue South\, Seattle.  This venue is directly across the street\, west\, from the northwest corner of Lumen Field and catty corner to the massive north parking lot there.  It is adjacent to the newly renovated Friends of the Waterfront Plaza.  It is not a part of downtown Seattle or of Pioneer Square. This area is open\, well lit\, and benefits from continuous security patrols\, well-maintained public spaces\, and a strong partnership between local businesses\, city services\, and community organizations.  If you’ve been down there for a game\, you know the nearby area has been developed into swanky condos and office buildings. \nThe Hall can be reached via I-90\, I-5\, Highway 99\, Light Rail\, bus\, and Seattle surface streets.  You can get there from anywhere. There is an immense amount of parking. \nThe restaurant itself is part of the Hall Group\, which runs four beer halls on Queen Anne\, Capitol Hill\, in Kirkland\, and at Occidental.  (It seems fitting that a fly club would meet in a beer hall.) We will be upstairs in the private mezzanine at Occidental\, which has a capacity of 40. \nPlease sign up early to assure yourself a seat. \nAnd for something even more different\, this meeting is FREE!  Now\, I know what you’re thinking\, there is no such thing as a “free lunch\,” or in this case a free dinner.  And you would be correct.  The Club will not charge for this first meeting.  And\, all food and beverages will be provided on a “no-host” basis.  Each of you may order what you wish off the Hall’s extensive food and beverage menu and you will receive and pay your own check.  You have the personal choice of dinner and drinks.  (Mandatory 20% gratuity and 10.35% tax).  No more one-size-fits-all meal. \nI’m very excited about this new venue.  It has great access for all\, copious parking\, and we get away from the rubber chicken buffet.  Let’s give this a good try. \nIt is important that we produce a good turnout for this meeting.  This venue is an experiment for us and it also is an experiment for The Hall.  We need a good showing – translation\, we need to show them that we are a good partner in terms of what we spend for food and drink.  So please sign up as early as you can and come to this meeting.  We need good attendance to make this work. \nThe usual schedule applies.  Wet Fly at 5:30\, dinner 6:15 -7:00\, business and program 7:00 – 8:30. \nDan
