A Fisherman's Right

A discussion about the fishery is being hosted by Community Linkages:

The right of a Newfoundlander to catch, process and market fish from the sea will be our starting point, but any fishery issue related to rural Newfoundland can be raised. Special guests include Heather Manual and Gordon Slade. Also, Justin Libby from Port Clyde Fresh Catch will be in attendance to share fisher experiences from Maine.

Where: Petty Harbour Rec Centre
When: Thursday, April 1st, 2010
7:00pm – 8:30pm

Why: To share experiences and build a stronger advocacy group in the CLCC.

Please join us after the discussion for an informal get together starting at 8:30. There will be music, a full service bar and snacks.

For more information or to RSVP for the event please email Darren: djfancey at yahoo.com
