I think likwid wanted to know what efforts these clubs make for the cause of fishing and how do they use what they have done to educate those who are not members about what they have done.

ahh...likwid, if that was the case appologies sent to being a little hard in my reply.

well, the clubs website's are usually a good place to start. i know with risaa the best place to start is a newsletter. i know they drop off many copies at many tackle shops for free. risaa's newsletter is once a month and pretty thick for a club newsletter. i just checked and their newsletter is online as well http://www.risaa.org/newsletter/newsletter0608.html . some other clubs i belong to and have belonged to are not always the best at informing the public of their accomplishments and events. many clubs seem to spread info at meetings and thru word of mouth. some clubs almost expect members to "boast" a little of some of the accomplishments and work that club may be doing.

Eben put it much more eloquently than I did.
